Context Readings

Do Not Love The World

15 Love not the world, nor the things in the world. If any love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For every thing which in the world, the eager desire of the flesh, and the eager desire of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. 17 And the world passes away, and its eager desires: but he doing the will of God remains for ever.
