Attraction for the World
(From Forerunner Commentary)

1 John 2:15-16  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) Why would John say such a thing if it were not possible for us to be disloyal to the Family of God, to God Himself, and to the way of God? Within us still dwells an attraction for this world and for Satan. It is something we must constantly fight and put down. John W. Ritenbaugh Revelation 2-3 and Works

1 John 2:16  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) John uses these three spiritual terms to show that God is not concerned about attractive things, like automobiles or houses or clothing, but a spiritual power the world has that many find attractive. Something about the world is alluring, and most find it difficult to resist. John W. Ritenbaugh The World, the Church and Laodiceanism
