A Warning about the World
15 Do not love the world(A) or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh,(B) the lust of the eyes,(C) and the pride(D) in one’s possessions—is not from the Father, but is from the world. 17 And the world with its lust is passing away,(E) but the one who does the will of God(F) remains forever.(G)

1 John 2:15-17
International Standard Version
15 Stop loving[a] the world and the things that are in the world. If anyone persists in loving the world, the Father’s love is not in him. 16 For everything that is in the world—the desire for fleshly gratification,[b] the desire for possessions,[c] and worldly arrogance—is not from the Father but is from the world. 17 And the world and its desires are fading away, but the person who does God’s will remains forever.
