Printed in full from the World English Bible (public domain). Every reference resolves against a local copy of that text before this page is built. The notes are editorial: they say what the passage contributes in its own context, and where a verse is routinely turned against that context, the warning sits with it. Read how we read Scripture on money first.
15Don’t love the world or the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, the Father’s love isn’t in him. 16For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, isn’t the Father’s, but is the world’s. 17The world is passing away with its lusts, but he who does God’s will remains forever.1 John 2:15-17 · World English Bible, public domain
17But whoever has the world’s goods, and sees his brother in need, and closes his heart of compassion against him, how does God’s love remain in him? 18My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.1 John 3:17-18 · World English Bible, public domain
