- You adulterers! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God? I say it again: If you want to be a friend of the world, you make yourself an enemy of God.
- For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world.
- But the one who endures to the end will be saved.
- I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.
- But you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won a victory over those people, because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world.
- For every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith.
- For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
- For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.
- Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you.
- I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.
- And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever.
- I have told you these things so that you will be filled with my joy. Yes, your joy will overflow!
- He gives power to the weak
and strength to the powerless. - Give thanks to the Lord and proclaim his greatness.
Let the whole world know what he has done. - Father, I want these whom you have given me to be with me where I am. Then they can see all the glory you gave me because you loved me even before the world began!
- God chose things despised by the world, things counted as nothing at all, and used them to bring to nothing what the world considers important. As a result, no one can ever boast in the presence of God.
- I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Anyone who eats this bread will live forever; and this bread, which I will offer so the world may live, is my flesh.
- I could have no greater joy than to hear that my children are following the truth.
- Kind words are like honey—
sweet to the soul and healthy for the body. - Instead, let us test and examine our ways.
Let us turn back to the Lord. - Yes, God will bless us,
and people all over the world will fear him. - I said to the Lord, “You are my Master!
Every good thing I have comes from you.” - A wise child brings joy to a father;
a foolish child brings grief to a mother. - Now this is what the Lord says to the family of Israel:
“Come back to me and live!” - Commit your actions to the Lord,
and your plans will succeed.
