Will of God

Will of God

"Do not love or cherish the world
or the things that are in the world.
If anyone loves the world,
love for the Father is not in him.

For all that is in the world...
the lust of the flesh
[craving for sensual gratification]
and the lust of the eyes
[greedy longings of the mind]
and the pride of life
[assurance in one’s own resources
or in the stability of earthly things]...
these do not come from the Father
but are from the world [itself].

And the world passes away and disappears,
and with it the forbidden cravings
(the passionate desires, the lust) of it;
but he who does the will of God
and carries out His purposes
in his life abides (remains) forever."
