Jesus' Truths-
1Jn 2:15-17 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. And the world passeth away, and the lust
thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
1Jn 5:4,5 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the
world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who
is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of
God?
Joh 15:18, 19 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated
me before it hated you. If ye were of
the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but
I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
Rom 12:1-3 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the
mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy,
acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye
transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good,
and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. For I say, through the grace given
unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly
than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to
every man the measure of faith.
Eph 2:2-8 Wherein in time past ye walked according to
the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the
spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: Among whom also we all had our conversation
in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh
and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. But
God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath
quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us
sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the
exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and
that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God
Jas 4:4-8 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not
that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will
be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth
in us lusteth to envy? But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God
resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. Submit yourselves
therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to
you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.

Joh
17:1-26;18:1 These words spake Jesus,
and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify
thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: As thou hast given him power over
all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.
And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and
Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. I have glorified thee on the earth: I have
finished the work which thou gavest me to do. And now, O Father, glorify thou
me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world
was. I have manifested thy name unto the
men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest
them me; and they have kept thy word.
Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of
thee. For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have
received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have
believed that thou didst send me. I pray for them: I PRAY NOT FOR THE WORLD,
but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. And all mine are
thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. And now I am no more in the world, but these
are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name
those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. While I was with them in the world, I kept
them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is
lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. And now
come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my
joy fulfilled in themselves. I have given them thy word; and the world hath
hated them, BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT OF THE WORLD, EVEN AS I AM NOT OF THE
WORLD. I pray not that thou shouldest
take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.
They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through
thy truth: thy word is truth. As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have
I also sent them into the world. And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that
they also might be sanctified through the truth. Neither pray I for these alone, but for them
also which shall believe on me through their word;
That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art
in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may
believe that thou hast sent me. And the
glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we
are one: I in them, and thou in me, that
they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast
sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
Father, I will that
they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold
my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation
of the world. O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known
thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me. And I have declared unto them thy name, and
will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and
I in them. When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples
over the brook Cedron, where was a garden, into the which he entered, and his
disciples.

Jesus was and is NOT
of this world.
Jesus did NOT pray
for this world.
We like to imagine
Jesus praying for the world, but that just wasn't true. Jesus prayed for THOSE which God the Father
gave Him. Jesus prayed for THOSE who believe on Him through the words of THOSE
God the Father gave Him.
First and foremost
we are taught the manner of praying by our Savior- remember?
Mat 6:9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our
Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Mat 6:10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth,
as it is in heaven.
Mat 6:11 Give us this day our daily bread.
Mat 6:12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our
debtors.
Mat 6:13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver
us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever.
Amen.
FATHER GOD IN
HEAVEN.
HOLY IS YOUR NAME.
YOUR KINGDOM COME.
YOUR WILL BE DONE ON
EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN.
GIVE US OUR DAILY
SUSTENANCE IN ALL THINGS.
FORGIVE US AS WE
FORGIVE OTHERS.
LEAD US NOT INTO
TEMPTATION TO THE PLACE OF DESPAIR.
DELIVER US FROM
EVIL.
THINE IS THE
KINGDOM.
THINE IS THE POWER.
THINE IS THE GLORY
FOREVER.
AMEN.
Mat 5:44 …pray for them which despitefully use you,
and persecute you
Rom 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our
infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the
Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be
uttered.
