Do Not Love The World

15 Do not love the world or what the world can offer. When any one loves the world, there is no love for the Father in him; 16 for all that the world can offer--the gratification of the earthly nature, the gratification of the eye, the pretentious life--belongs, not to the Father, but to the world. 17 And the world, and all that it gratifies, is passing away, but he who does God's will remains for ever.
