The 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" (‭I John‬ ‭2‬:‭15‬ NKJV). This earth is not our residence or place of establishment forever. The world will pass away, along with all of its lusts and passions. It's very important that we follow Jesus Christ with a whole heart. This world has many great things we can see, taste, hear, smell, and touch while we are here living upon it, but this in not our home. Jesus said not to lay up treasures here in the world, but to lay up for ourselves treasures in Heaven. There is a great blessing waiting for everyone of us who continue to endure in the call Jesus Christ. We are Heaven bound, and all that is in this world is evil and darkness. In order to overcome the wicked one, the world, one's love for it, and the things of it must be renounced. Fellowship with the world violates our marriage vows to heaven. The world must be renounced, and that means renouncing satan. This is the deadliest blow to satan's rule. "Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, 'The Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealously'” (‭James‬ ‭4‬:‭4-5‬ NKJV)? Jesus is not of this world, but we are. He has given us the Holy Spirit to overcome it in this day we live in. God bless you. Amen
