'World' in the Bible

and he is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for [the sins of] the whole world.

Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him,

because everything [that is] in the world--the desire of the flesh and the desire of the eyes and the arrogance of material possessions--is not from the Father, but is from the world.

And the world is passing away, and its desire, but the one who does the will of God remains {forever}.

See what sort of love the Father has given to us: that we should be called children of God, and we are! Because of this the world does not know us: because it did not know him.

Do not marvel, brothers, if the world hates you.

Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits [to determine] if they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God, and this is the [spirit] of the antichrist, [of] which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world.

You are from God, little children, and have conquered them, because the one [who is] in you is greater than the one [who is] in the world.

They are from the world; {therefore} they speak from the world and the world listens to them.

By this the love of God is revealed in us: that God sent his one and only Son into the world in order that we may live through him.

And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son [to be the] Savior of the world.

By this love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment, because just as that one is, [so] also are we in this world.

because everyone who is fathered by God conquers the world.

Now who is the one who conquers the world except the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in [the power of] the evil one.
