No matter how much we love God, we constantly hear the voice of another suitor, tirelessly seeking to lure us away. Earthly enticements vie for our heart’s affections. Louder still to believers is the voice of our Savior: “Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.” 1 John 2:15 (NKJV) The world is Satan’s ordered system, with all of its purposes, pursuits, pleasures, practices, and places where God is not wanted. This world-system often is religious, cultured, refined, and intellectual. But it is anti-God and anti-Christ. Real Christianity demands separation from this world.
