What does the world include?\u00a0“For all that is in the world\u2014the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride of life\u2014is not from the Father but is from the world.”<\/strong><\/em> 1 John 2:16<\/p>\n

What are “these things” we will inherit? \u00a0“New Heaven, New Earth, New Jerusalem, God Himself dwelling with man, No tears, No\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>death, No mourning, No crying, No pain, No former things, All things renewed, The Spring of the Water of Life…\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/span>The one who conquers will have this heritage, and I will be his God and he will be my son.” <\/strong><\/em>Revelation 21:1-7<\/p>\n

Thank God, Jesus prayed for me before being taken up:“Holy Father, protect them by Your name, the name You gave Me, so that they may be one as We are one…\u00a0I am not asking that You take them out of the world, but that You keep them from the evil one…\u00a0Sanctify them by the truth; Your word is truth\u00a0<\/a>As You sent Me into the world, I have also sent them.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>John 11:11,15,17<\/p>\n
