羅馬書 12:2
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is-his good, pleasing and perfect will.
不要效法這個世界，只要心意更新而變化，叫你們察驗何為神的善良、純全、可喜悅的旨意。

You adulterous people, don't you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God.
你們這些淫亂的人（原文作淫婦）哪，豈不知與世俗為友就是與神為敵嗎？所以凡想要與世俗為友的，就是與神為敵了。
約翰一書 5:19
We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one.
我們知道，我們是屬神的，全世界都臥在那惡者手下。
約翰一書 3:13
Do not be surprised, my brothers and sisters, if the world hates you.
弟兄們，世人若恨你們，不要以為希奇。
