What Does the World Offer?

1-minute devotion for Monday, 11/10/25

“Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you.Β 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.” 1 John 2:15-16 NLT

Here “the world” refers to the system of this world which aligns with Satan and opposes God. John warns readers not to love the false values, false standards, and false gods of society because whatever things are involved in the world’s system are under the authority of the evil one. (David Jeremiah Study Bible notes)

In His Love, Cindy

Verses for Meditation, 5/25/23

“Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. For everything in the worldβ€”the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of lifeβ€”comes not from the Father but from the world.” 1 John 2:15-16

Here “the world” refers to the system of this world which aligns with Satan and opposes God. John warns readers not to love the false values, false standards, and false gods of society because whatever things are involved in the world’s system are under the authority of the evil one.
