1 John 2:15-17

MLV(i) 15 Do not love the world, nor the things which are in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 Because all the things which are in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the self-importance of life, are not from the Father, but are from the world. 17 And the world is passing away and its lust, but he who is practicing the will of God abides forever.
