"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. 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." 1 John 2:15, 16.

»Elsk ikke verden, ej heller det, der er i verden! Hvis nogen elsker verden, så er Faderens kærlighed ikke i ham. Thi alt det, der er i verden, kødets lyst og øjnenes lyst og pral med jordisk gods, er ikke af Faderen, men af verden.« (1Joh. 2,15-16).
