Love Not The World

Love Not The World | Overcome The World | 1 John 2:15-16 How do you follow Christ faithfully in a world constantly trying to capture your attention, desires, and affection? In 1 John 2:15-16, the Apostle John warns believers not to love the world or the things of the world. In this message, Love Not The World, we examine what Scripture means by “the world” and three powerful areas of temptation: The desires of the flesh. The desires of the eyes. The pride of life. The world offers things that look attractive in the moment but cannot satisfy eternally. God is calling us to examine what has our hearts, resist the pressure to conform, and build our lives around what lasts forever. As you listen, ask yourself: What is competing with God for my affection? Am I investing my life in what is temporary or what is eternal? 📖 Main Text: 1 John 2:15-16 ESV 📖 Also referenced: Genesis 3:6, Matthew 6:19-21, 1 John 2:17 First Assembly of God – Wood River We were created to do life together.
