1 John 2:15–16
Do Not Love the World
15 vDo not love the world or the things in the world. wIf anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world—xthe desires of the flesh and ythe desires of the eyes and pride of life1—is not from the Father but is from the world.
1 John 5:19
19 We know that we are from God, and qthe whole world lies in the power of the evil one.
