#DoYouReallyLoveGod

1Jn 2:15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

1Jn 2:16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

1Jn 2:17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

Here we are told again: we cannot love the world or Love Not the World things that are in the world and have the love of the Father in us at the same time. We will love one and hate the other. We will hold to one or despise the other.

When we set our affections on one, our affection for the other dies. We cannot have our affections on both.

The world...
