World

2Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.

15Don’t love the world or the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, the Father’s love isn’t in him.

11For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,

12instructing us to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we would live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world;

33I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have oppression; but cheer up! I have overcome the world.”

36For what does it profit a man, to gain the whole world, and forfeit his life?

7For we brought nothing into the world, and we certainly can’t carry anything out.

8But having food and clothing, we will be content with that.

17The world is passing away with its lusts, but he who does God’s will remains forever.

15He said to them, “Go into all the world, and preach the Good News to the whole creation.

4You adulterers and adulteresses, don’t you know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

4For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world: your faith.

3For though we walk in the flesh, we don’t wage war according to the flesh;

1See how great a love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn’t know us, because it didn’t know him.

27Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, give I to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.

16For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, isn’t the Father’s, but is the world’s.

28and God chose the lowly things of the world, and the things that are despised, and the things that are not, that he might bring to nothing the things that are:

29that no flesh should boast before God.

16For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

18Let no one deceive himself. If anyone thinks that he is wise among you in this world, let him become a fool, that he may become wise.

12Again, therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.”

26For what will it profit a man, if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?

20For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity; that they may be without excuse.

19Oh how great is your goodness, which you have laid up for those who fear you, which you have worked for those who take refuge in you, before the sons of men!

2And he is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.

5Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

27Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.

4by which he has granted to us his precious and exceedingly great promises; that through these you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world by lust.
