Thematic Bible: World

Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore prudent as serpents, and harmless as doves. But be on your guard against men: for they will deliver you up to the sanhedrim, and scourge you in their synagogues. And ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the heathen. read more.
But when they shall deliver you up, be under no anxiety what ye shall say; for it shall be given you in that very hour what ye should speak: for it is not you who are speaking, but the Spirit of your Father which is speaking in you. Then brother shall surrender brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against parents, and cause them to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end, that man shall be saved.

AND Jesus departing was going his way from the temple: and his disciples came to him, to point out to his observation the buildings of the temple. But Jesus said unto them, Do you not see all these things? I tell you of a certainty, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, which shall not be utterly thrown down. Then as he was sitting upon the mount of Olives, his disciples came to him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall there things be? and what is the sign of thy coming, and of the consummation of the age? read more.
And Jesus answering said unto them, Beware that no man deceive you. For many will come in my name, saying, I am the Messiah; and shall deceive multitudes. And ye shall hear of wars, and rumours of wars: see that ye be not terrified: for these things must first be, but the end is not yet. For nation shall be roused up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in diverse places. Now all these things are the beginning of the travailing pangs. Then shall they deliver you up to affliction, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.

AND as he was going out of the temple, one of his disciples said unto him, Master, behold what vast stones, and what structures! And Jesus answering said to him, Beholdest thou these magnificent structures? there shall not be left one stone upon another which shall not be thrown down. And as he was sitting on the mount of Olives, opposite the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately, read more.
Tell us, when shall these things be? and what is the sign when all these things shall come to pass? Then Jesus answering them, began to say, Beware that no man deceive you: for many will come in my name, saying, I am the Messiah; and shall deceive many. But when ye hear of wars, and rumours of wars, be not troubled: for these things must be; but the end is not yet. And nation shall rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and commotions: these are the beginnings of sorrows. But take ye heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to their sanhedrims, and to the synagogues; ye shall be beaten with rods, and be set before kings and governors for my name's sake, for a testimony unto them. And the Gospel must first be preached to all nations. But when delivering you up, they shall bring you to the bar, be not previously anxious what ye shall say, neither premeditate: for it shall be given to you at that very hour, what ye shall speak: for it is not you, who are speaking, but the Holy Ghost. And brother shall deliver up brother unto death, and the father the son: and children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake. But he that endureth to the end, the same shall be saved.

And some of them talking of the temple, how adorned it was with the beautiful stone-work and the dedicated offerings, he said, As for these things which ye are gazing upon, the days will come, in which one stone will not be left upon another, that shall not be utterly thrown down. And they asked him, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and what is the sign, when these things are ready to come to pass? read more.
Then he said, Take heed that ye be not deluded: for many will come in my name, saying, I am he; and the period approaches: go not therefore after them. But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the conclusion is not immediately. Then saith he unto them, Nation shall rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and great earthquakes shall be in different places, and famines, and pestilences; and in the heaven shall be frightful appearances, and mighty signs. But before all these things, they will lay hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and to prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake. And it shall afford you an opportunity to bear your testimony. Therefore rest satisfied in your hearts, not to premeditate what apology to make: for I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall be utterly unable to contradict or resist. But ye shall be betrayed even by parents, and brethren, and relations, and friends; and some of you they shall put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.

I AM the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth no fruit, he taketh it away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he pruneth it clean, that it may bring forth more fruit. Ye are already clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. read more.
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abide in the vine: so neither can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: he that abideth in me, and I in him, this person beareth much fruit: because without me ye can do nothing. If any man abide not in me, he is cast out as a branch, and withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask whatsoever ye will, and it shall be done for you. Herein is my Father glorified, that ye should bring forth much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. Just as the Father hath loved me, I also have loved you: abide in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and as I abide in his love. These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy may abide in you, and your joy may be full. This is my commandment, That ye love one another, just as I have loved you. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever things I command you. I no more call you servants; for the servant knoweth not what his master is doing: but I have called you friends because I have made known to you all things which I have heard of my Father. Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and appointed you that ye should go forth and bear fruit, and that your fruit should be permanent: that so whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he may give it you. These things I command you, that ye love one another. If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before you. If ye were of the world, the world would love its own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have elected you out of the world, for this very cause the world hateth you.

THESE things spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son may glorify thee: even as thou hast given him authority over all flesh, that with regard to all those whom thou hast given him, he should give to them eternal life: and this is eternal life, that they should know thee the only true God, and him whom thou hast sent, Jesus, the Messiah. read more.
I have glorified thee upon earth: I have completed the work which thou gavest me to perform. And now, Father, do thou glorify me with thyself in the glory which I held with thee before the world was. I have made known thy name to the persons whom thou gavest me out of the world: for thee they had a being, and to me thou hast given them; and thy word have they kept. Now have they known, that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are from thee. For the declarations which thou gavest to me I have delivered to them; and they have received them, and have known assuredly that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou hast sent me. I entreat for them: I make no request for the world; but for those thou hast given me; for they are thine. And all mine are thine, and thine mine; and I have been glorified in them. And now no longer am I in this world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to thee. Holy Father! preserve them for thy name's sake whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. When I was with them in the world, I preserved them by thy name: those whom thou hast given me have I guarded, and not one of them is perished, except the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. But now I am coming to thee; and I am speaking these things in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves. I have given them thy word and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

For this is the commandment which ye have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. Not as Cain, who was of the wicked one, and slew his brother: and wherefore did he slay him? Because his own works were wicked, and those of his brother righteous. Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.

Verse Concepts

GOD, who spake to the fathers of old at various times, and in different manners by the prophets, in these last days hath spoken to us by a Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

IN the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not one thing made that was made. read more.
In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness did not comprehend it. A man was sent from God, whose name was John. He came for a witness, that he might bear testimony concerning the Light, that all men through him might believe. He was not the Light, but sent that he should bear testimony concerning the Light. He was that true Light, which illumines every man by his coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

By faith we understand that the worlds were exactly formed by the word of God, so that the visible objects were not made out of things which now appear. Verse Concepts

For as I walked about, and attentively viewed the objects of your worship, I found even an altar on which was this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore you in ignorance adore, him I preach unto you. The God who created the world, and all things in it, he that is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples of man's construction; nor is he served by human hands, as if he needed any creature, himself imparting to all beings life, and breath, and all things.

knowing this principally, that in the last of the days there will come scoffers, walking after their own lewd passions, and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue in the same state as from the beginning of the creation. For this they chuse to keep out of sight, that by the word of God the heavens were created of old, and the earth rising out of the water and subsisting amidst the water; read more.
whence the world then existing, being deluged by water, was destroyed; but the present heavens and earth by the same word are treasured up, reserved for fire at the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. But let not this particular be concealed from you, beloved, that one day with the Lord is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

Verse Concepts

These times indeed of ignorance God then overlooked; but he now commands all men in every place to repent: because he hath fixed the day in which he will judge the whole world in righteousness by the man whom he hath appointed; affording evidence of this to all, by raising him from the dead.

Then Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a grain of wheat falling on the earth undergo a deathlike change, it abideth single: but if it [thus] die, it beareth abundant produce. He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world, shall preserve it to life eternal. read more.
If a man will be my servant, let him follow me; and where I am, there also shall my servant be: and if any man serve me, him will my Father honour. Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour. Father, glorify thy name! Then came a voice from heaven, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again. The multitude that stood by, and heard it, said that it was thunder: others said, An angel hath spoken to him. Jesus answered and said, This voice came not for my sake, but for your's. Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the ruler of this world be ejected out [of it].

Verse Concepts

For if God spared not the angels when they sinned, but casting them bound in chains of darkness into hell, delivered them to be kept fast until the judgment; and spared not the old world, but guarded safely Noah the eighth person, the preacher of righteousness, when he brought a deluge on the world of the ungodly:

knowing this principally, that in the last of the days there will come scoffers, walking after their own lewd passions, and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue in the same state as from the beginning of the creation. For this they chuse to keep out of sight, that by the word of God the heavens were created of old, and the earth rising out of the water and subsisting amidst the water; read more.
whence the world then existing, being deluged by water, was destroyed;

But we speak wisdom among the perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who are destroying themselves: but we speak the wisdom of God, which had been hid in mystery, which God predestined before the worlds were, for our glory: which none of the rulers of this world have known: for if they had known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

THESE things spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son may glorify thee: even as thou hast given him authority over all flesh, that with regard to all those whom thou hast given him, he should give to them eternal life: and this is eternal life, that they should know thee the only true God, and him whom thou hast sent, Jesus, the Messiah. read more.
I have glorified thee upon earth: I have completed the work which thou gavest me to perform. And now, Father, do thou glorify me with thyself in the glory which I held with thee before the world was. I have made known thy name to the persons whom thou gavest me out of the world: for thee they had a being, and to me thou hast given them; and thy word have they kept. Now have they known, that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are from thee. For the declarations which thou gavest to me I have delivered to them; and they have received them, and have known assuredly that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou hast sent me. I entreat for them: I make no request for the world; but for those thou hast given me; for they are thine. And all mine are thine, and thine mine; and I have been glorified in them. And now no longer am I in this world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to thee. Holy Father! preserve them for thy name's sake whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. When I was with them in the world, I preserved them by thy name: those whom thou hast given me have I guarded, and not one of them is perished, except the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. But now I am coming to thee; and I am speaking these things in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves. I have given them thy word and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. I entreat not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest preserve them from the wicked one. They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.

Jesus therefore saith to them, My proper time is not yet come: but your time is always ready. The world cannot hate you, but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that its deeds are evil.

whereby superlatively great and precious promises are freely given to us: that by these ye might become partakers of a divine nature, having fled far away from the corruption that is in the world through inordinate concupiscence.??5 And for this very purpose employing the greatest diligence, lead up in the train of your faith courage; and with courage intelligence; Verse Concepts

For every thing which is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pomp of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. Verse Concepts

If ye were of the world, the world would love its own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have elected you out of the world, for this very cause the world hateth you. Remember the word which I spake unto you, The servant is not greater than his master. If they have persecuted me, they will persecute you also; if they have observed my words, they will observe your's also. But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me. Had I not come and spoken to them, they would not have had sin: but now they have no excuse for their sin. He that hateth me hateth my Father also. If I had not done among them the works which no other ever did, they would not have had sin: but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father. But it is in order that the word may be fulfilled which is written in their law, "They hated me without a cause."

Jesus therefore saith to them, My proper time is not yet come: but your time is always ready. The world cannot hate you, but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that its deeds are evil. Go ye up to this feast: for I am not yet going up to this feast, because my fixed time is not yet arrived.

Love not the world, neither the things which are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For every thing which is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pomp of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust thereof, but he who doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thy own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee to me: what hast thou done? Jesus replied, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom had been of this world, then would my servants have struggled hard, that I should not have been delivered up to the Jews: but now my kingdom is not from hence.

Wo to the world because of offences! for there is a necessity that offences come: nevertheless, wo to that man by whom the offence cometh! Verse Concepts

BELOVED, believe not every pretender to inspiration, but bring these spirits to the trial whether they are of God; because many false prophets are gone forth into the world. By this ye know the Spirit of God: every spirit who confesseth that Jesus the Messiah is come in the flesh, is from God. And every spirit who confesseth not that Jesus the Messiah is come into the world, is not from God: and this is that spirit of antichrist which ye have heard that it is coming, and now is already in the world. read more.
