Evil in the World

Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, so also death was passed on to all men, because all sinned.

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways,” declares the LORD.

“For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so My ways are higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts.

And we know that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose.

Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who turn darkness to light and light to darkness, who replace bitter with sweet and sweet with bitter.

Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.

I have told you these things so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take courage; I have overcome the world!”

Again, the gift is not like the result of the one man’s sin: The judgment that followed one sin brought condemnation, but the gift that followed many trespasses brought justification.

Put on the full armor of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes.
