Do Not Love the World

¹⁵ Do not love ^(A)the world nor the things in the world. ^(B)If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. ¹⁶ For all that is in the world, ^(C)the lust of the flesh and ^(D)the lust of the eyes and ^(E)the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world. ^17 (F)The world is passing away and also its lusts; but the one who ^(G)does the will of God continues to live forever.

¹⁰ for ^(A)Demas, having loved ^(B)this present ^[a]world, has deserted me and gone to ^(C)Thessalonica; Crescens has gone to ^[b](D)Galatia, ^(E)Titus to Dalmatia.
