Do Not Love The World
15 Stop loving the world and the things that are in the world. If anyone persists in loving the world, the Father's love is not in him. 16 For everything that is in the world the desire for fleshly gratification, the desire for possessions, and worldly arrogance is not from the Father but is from the world. 17 And the world and its desires are fading away, but the person who does God's will remains forever.
