“Misplaced Love” I John 2:12-17

“Misplaced Love” Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. 17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. (I John 2:15-17)

“Misplaced Love” Do Not Love The World! (I John 2:12-14) I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake. 13 I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father. 14 I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.

“Misplaced Love” Do Not Love The World! (I John 2:12-14) Because we have been forgiven: Because we know Him. Because We have overcome the wicked one.

“Misplaced Love” Do Not Love The World! (I John 2:12-14) You cannot serve two masters: (Matthew 6:24) There are two affections that have always existed in the world. The Love for God (Mark 12:30) The Love for the World (James 4:4)

“Misplaced Love” Do Not Love The World! Love not the world, (I John 2:15) Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

“Misplaced Love” Do Not Love The World! (I John 2:16) First, the lust of the flesh. (Romans 8:3, 8) Second, the lust of the eyes. (Matthew 5:27-29) Third, the pride of life. (James 4:13-16)

“Misplaced Love” Do Not Love The World! (I John 2:15-17) God and the world are not compatible. “For all that is In the world… Is not of the Father but is of the world.” The world is transitory (Not permanent) “And the world is passing away; and the lust of it.” We have an Eternal Destiny “He who does the will of God abides forever.”

“Misplaced Love” As Christians it is important that we understand what it means to “love the world.” We can and should love the world as God loves it, possessing and demonstrating a benevolent, sacrificial love to those who are spiritually lost. (I John 4:7-11) Consider John 3:16.

“Misplaced Love” As Christians it is important that we understand what our relationship should be to the world. I. Not to be conformed to this world (Romans 12:2) II. Not to love the world or anything in it (I John 2:15-17) III. Not to be entangled in the cares of this world (Mark 4:19) IV. Not to become a friend of the world (James 4:4)

“Misplaced Love” As Christians it is important that we understand what our relationship should be to the world. V. Not to be surprised when the world hates Christians (I John 3:13) VI. To keep ourselves unspotted from the world (James 1:27) VII. Always remember we are not of this world (John 15:18-19) VIII. To overcome the world with our faith (I John 5:3-4)

“Misplaced Love” Remember Lust is: Deceitful (Ephesians 4:22) Foolish and harmful (I Timothy 6:9) A guide that will lead us astray (II Timothy 3:6)
