Do Not Love the World (1 John 2:12–17)

Summary

The sermon emphasizes that the world system is a spiritual rebellion against God, run by Satan, and the antithesis to God's kingdom. Scripture from 1 John 2:15-17 is referenced, warning believers not to love the world or the things in it, as its desires are passing away. The practical takeaway is to lower expectations of worldly approval and to understand that the world will inherently oppose believers, thus guarding against disappointment and focusing on God's will.
