1 John 2:15-17

Who do you love, and how do you live, a couple of key questions we’ll explore today on a Daily Walk as we continue through First John. This would be a good time to look in the mirror and examine our affections to see if they need to be realigned with God’s will! The fact of the matter is there are a good number of people in love with the world, or the things of this world, and that will all pass away one day. But those who do the will of God will live forever.

Life is likened to a vapor in the Bible, and the older we get the more we see how true that is! It sure goes by quickly doesn’t it? And today on a Daily Walk we would like you to consider who you love! The world, or God and His will for your life? While many are choosing to live for things that are temporary, pastor John Randall will encourage us to consider what lasts forever… and invest in that!

There’s a danger we need to be aware of as Christians and that is becoming worldly!  Simply put, worldliness is anything that takes us away from loving God and doing His will.  Last time, we uncovered a couple of reasons why Christians shouldn’t love the world.  Because of what it is, and what it does to us!  Pastor Jeff observes a couple more reasons today in First John chapter two, verses 15-17.

Today on Sound Doctrine we’re talking about a love that God hates.  Maybe that sounds a bit strange upon first hearing.  But the love we’re talking about is a love for the world!   And First John contains a much-needed warning about it that we’d do well to pay close attention to!  You’re about to hear four very good reasons Christians shouldn’t love the world.
