15 Love (love which springs from admiration and veneration which chooses its objects with decision of will) not the world (kosmos), neither the things that are in the world (kosmos). If any man love the world (kosmos), the love of the Father is not in him
.16 For all that is in the world (kosmos) the lust (sinful desire) of the flesh (flesh), and the lust of the eyes, and the pride (the character of a false pretender, imposter, braggart, boastful, pride, arrogant) of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world (kosmos).
17 And the world passeth away, and the lust (sinful desire, mans depraved nature) thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
1 John 3:2-3
2 Beloved, now are we the sons (descendants, children) of God, and it doth not yet appear (to shine forth as to be seen) what we shall be: but we know that, when he (JC) shall appear (to shine forth as to be seen), we shall be like him; for we shall see him (with the eyes and look away from others, to regard) (even as) as he is.
3 And every man that hath this hope (expectation of future good) in (resting within) him purifieth (to make clean, pure, chaste, clean, not contaminated by anything) himself, even as he (JC) is pure (from every defilement).
