‘We Should Overcome The World System.’
1 John 2:15-17.
a) 1 John 2:15. We are not to love the World System or the things that it offers us.
b) 1 John 2:15. When we love the World System we do not have the Love of the Father God in us.
c) 1 John 2:16. The World System is not from Father God. It offers:-
1-A craving for physical pleasure.
2-A craving for something we see.
3-Pride in our achievements and possessions.
d) 1 John 2:17. The World System is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the Will of God abides forever.
(This Second one reminds me that I Should Overcome The World System)

The Book of Ephesians in the Bible clearly teaches both how a True Believer should live and how to become a True Believer. I believe that this is one of the first Bible Books that the New Believer should read. It will help them to understand the Loving and Positive Heart of the Triune God.
