15 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.
5 Who is it that overcomes the world but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
33 I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take courage! I have overcome the world.«
10 For godly sorrow produces a repentance that leads to salvation and brings no regret, but worldly sorrow produces death.
1 See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God! And so we are! The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him.
19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world is under the power of the evil one.
20 Where is the wise man? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?
21 For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know God, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe.
18 »If the world hates you, know that it hated me before it hated you.
19 If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
15 And he said to them, »Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.
4 You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
33 I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take courage! I have overcome the world.«
12 Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand the things freely given to us by God.
4 You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.
16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
19 And this is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
19 Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped and the whole world may be held accountable to God.
4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the worldour faith.
3 For though we live in the flesh, we do not wage war as the flesh does.
27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.
26 What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?
11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men,
12 training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live sober, upright, and godly lives in this present age,
12 Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, »I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.«
25 O righteous Father, the world has not known you, but I have known you; and these know that you sent me.
26 I have made known to them your name, and will make it known, that the love with which you loved me may be in them, and I in them.«
20 For since the creation of the world his invisible nature, even his eternal power and deity, has been clearly seen, being understood by the things that have been made. So they are without excuse;
7 For we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of it.
8 But if we have food and clothing, with these we shall be content.
4 You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
9 The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world did not know him.
18 Let no one deceive himself. If any one among you thinks that he is wise in this age, he must become a fool so that he may become wise.
4 By these he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may escape from the corruption that is in the world because of lust, and become partakers of the divine nature.
20 For since the creation of the world his invisible nature, even his eternal power and deity, has been clearly seen, being understood by the things that have been made. So they are without excuse;
14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.
13 »You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its taste, how shall it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men.
14 You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.
28 God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things, and the things that are not, to nullify the things that are,
29 so that no flesh may boast before God.
31 Now is the judgment of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out.
27 But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong,
2 And he is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world.
7 Woe to the world because of temptations to sin! For temptations must come, but woe to the man by whom the temptation comes!
8 See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to human tradition, according to the elementary principles of the world, rather than according to Christ.
7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away. For if I do not go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.
8 And when he comes, he will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
9 of sin, because they do not believe in me;
10 of righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you see me no more;
11 of judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.
13 Do not marvel, my brethren, if the world hates you.
14 I have given them your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
15 And he said to them, »Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.
4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the worldour faith.
7 For we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of it.
8 But if we have food and clothing, with these we shall be content.
2 Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
27 Religion that is pure and undefiled in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
15 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.
16 For all that is in the worldthe lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of lifeis not of the Father but is of the world.
15 I do not pray that you should take them out of the world, but that you should keep them from the evil one.
26 What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world did not know him.
2 Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
15 I do not pray that you should take them out of the world, but that you should keep them from the evil one.
16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
17 Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth.
18 As you sent me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.
36 For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul?
1 See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God! And so we are! The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him.
16 For all that is in the worldthe lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of lifeis not of the Father but is of the world.
17 And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.
27 Religion that is pure and undefiled in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
