For the Remnant
The Lover of Soul says, " If you belonged to this world, this world's people would love you. They would love you because you would belong with them. But I chose you so that you would be separate from this world's people. You do not belong with them, so they hate you. Remember what I told you: “No servant is more important than his master is.” If they have caused trouble for me, they will also cause trouble for you. But if they have obeyed my message, they will also obey your message. They will do all these things to you because you belong to me". John 15:19-21 EASY
Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God? I say it again: If you want to be a friend of the world, you make yourself an enemy of God. James 4:4 NLT
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. 1 John 2:15 NLT
Remember "this great Dragon—the ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, is the one deceiving the whole world. Revelation 12:9 TLB
Whatever direction the world's people are going and doing, don't follow them. The world is influenced by the prince of the air and the deceiver of the world. He is not the Lover of your soul, your Savior, Redeemer, Waymaker, Hightower, Fortress, Lifter of your head, and he definitely did not die for your sins. He is a thief who comes to steal, unalive and destroy you. John 10:10
And you [He made alive when you] were [spiritually] dead and separated from Him because of your transgressions and sins, in which you once walked. You were following the ways of this world [influenced by this present age], in accordance with the prince of the power of the air (Satan), the spirit who is now at work in the disobedient [the unbelieving, who fight against the purposes of God]. Ephesians 2:1-2
Since you are called, chosen, and belong to Lord Jesus, the world will hate you. Lord Jesus says, “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. John 15:18-19 NIV
John 17:14-26 reminds you that you are not of this world, even as Jesus is not of the world.
You are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy. 1 Peter 2:8-10 NKJV
The Lover of your soul is saying, “If you truly want to follow me, you should at once completely disown your own life. And you must be willing to share my cross and experience it as your own, as you continually surrender to my ways. For if you let your life go for my sake and for the sake of the gospel, you will continually experience true life. Mark 8:34-35
