1 John 2:15-17 β "Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. For everything in the worldβthe lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of lifeβcomes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever."

1 John 3:16-18 β "This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth."

Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. Therefore I do not run like someone running aimlessly; I do not fight like a boxer beating the air. No, I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize."

And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christβs ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christβs behalf: Be reconciled to God."

God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. βFor in him we live and move and have our being.β As some of your own poets have said, 'We are his offspring.'"

Philippians 2:3-8 β "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to deathβeven death on a cross!"
