Mundo
A Bíblia tem muito a dizer sobre o mundo e nossa relação com ele. Cristãos estão no mundo, mas não são do mundo — chamados a ser luz e sal sem se conformar com os padrões seculares.
Não ameis o mundo
Não ameis o mundo nem o que nele há. A cobiça da carne, a cobiça dos olhos e a soberba da vida não vêm do Pai, mas do mundo.
15 Do not love the world nor the things that are in the world. If any one loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him;
15 Do not love the world nor the things that are in the world. If any one loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him;16 for all that is in the world, the passions of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the show and pride of life, is not from the Father, but from the world.

17 And the world is passing away with its passions. But he who does the will of God endures forever.
4 You adulteresses, do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity to God? Whoever chooses to be a friend to the world stands as an enemy of God.

O amor de Deus pelo mundo
Porque Deus amou o mundo de tal maneira que deu seu Filho. O mesmo mundo que rejeita a Deus é amado por Ele e objeto de sua redenção.
16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son that every one who believes in him may not perish, but have life eternal.

19 This is the condemnation, that Light has come into the world and men have loved darkness rather than Light, because their deeds were wicked.
2 And he is an atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only but for those of the whole world.
1 SEE what love the Father has bestowed on us that we should be called children of God. And so we are. The reason why tho world does not know us is that it did not know him.

Vencer o mundo
Jesus venceu o mundo e nos dá sua paz e vitória. A fé é a vitória que vence o mundo — e aquele que nasceu de Deus o vence.
33 I have spoken these things to you that in me you may have peace. In the world you have distress. But he courageous. I have conquered the world."
33 I have spoken these things to you that in me you may have peace. In the world you have distress. But he courageous. I have conquered the world."
4 because all that is born of God conquers the world. And this is the victory that conquers the world, our faith.

5 Who is the conqueror of the world but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
4 But you are of God, little children, and have conquered them, because he who is in us is greater than he who is in the world.
No mundo sem ser do mundo
Jesus orou: não peço que os tires do mundo, mas que os guardes do mal. Somos enviados ao mundo como embaixadores do Reino.
14 I have given them thy word and the world has hated them, because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
15 I do not pray thee to take them out of the world, but to keep them from the evil.
15 I do not pray thee to take them out of the world, but to keep them from the evil.16 They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.17 Make them holy through the truth. Thy word is truth.18 As thou didst send me into the world, so have I sent them into the world,
25 Righteous Father, the world did not know thee, but I knew thee, and these knew that thou didst send me.26 I have made known thy name to them and will make it known, that the love with which thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them."
31 Now is the judgment of this world. Now the Ruler of this world will be cast out.
27 Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, nor fearful.
18 "If the world hates you, you know that it hated me before it hated you.19 If you were of the world the world would love its own. But you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world. For this reason the world hates you.
Sal e luz
Vós sois o sal da terra e a luz do mundo. O cristão transforma o ambiente onde está, sem se conformar com os padrões mundanos.
13 "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt becomes flat, with what can it be salted? It is good for nothing but to be thrown out and trodden under foot by men.14 You are the light of the world. A city cannot be hidden if set on a hill.
14 And this good news of the kingdom will be proclaimed in all the inhabited world for a testimony to all the Gentiles. And then will come the end.
26 For what profit will a man have if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? or what can a man give to buy back his soul?

7 Alas for the world because of the occasions of stumbling! It must be that such occasions come, but alas for the man through whom any one is tripped up!
15 He said to them, "Go into all the world and proclaim the good news to all the creation.
15 He said to them, "Go into all the world and proclaim the good news to all the creation.
36 What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul?
Não se conformar
Não vos conformeis com este mundo. A religião pura é guardar-se da corrupção do mundo e viver segundo o Espírito de Deus.
2 Do not follow the fashions of this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your minds so as to recognize what is the good and pleasing and perfect will of God.

20 For God's invisible qualities \'97 his everlasting power and deity \'97 are, since the creation of the world, clearly seen, being known from what he has made. So they are without any excuse.

19 We know that all that the Law says, it says to those who are under the Law, that every mouth may be shut and all the world may come under the condemnation of God.
27 Pure and stainless religion in the sight of God the Father is to visit orphans and widows in their trouble and to keep one's self unspotted from the world.

11 For the grace of God has appeared bringing salvation to all men,12 teaching us to renounce all irreligion and worldly passions and to live soberly, justly and piously in this present world,
A batalha espiritual
A nossa luta não é contra carne e sangue. Os poderes do mundo são reais, mas o que está em nós é maior que o que está no mundo.
12 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the arch-angels, against the authorities, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly heights.
8 Beware that no one carries you away captive by his philosophy and empty deceit according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary teachings of the world and not according to Christ.
3 For although living in the flesh we do not carry on our warfare according to the flesh,
12 But we did not receive the spirit of the world, but the Spirit that is from God, so that we know the gracious gifts of God.
20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this world? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?21 For when in the wisdom of God the world by its wisdom did not come to know God, God was pleased to save through the foolishness of our proclamation those who believe.
27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the strong,
28 and God has chosen the low-born things and the things of no account, the things that are not, to defeat the things that are,29 that no human being may boast in God's presence.
18 Let no one deceive himself. If any one of you thinks himself wise in this world, let him become a fool in order to become wise.
7 For we brought nothing into the world and we cannot carry anything out.8 If we have food and clothing we will be content with these.

Pertencemos a Deus
Do Senhor é a terra e tudo o que nela existe. Vivemos neste mundo como peregrinos, desejando a pátria celestial.
9 The true Light, which enlightens every man, was coming into the world.10 He was in the world, and the world had come into being through him, yet the world did not know him.
10 He was in the world, and the world had come into being through him, yet the world did not know him.
12 Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."
27 My sheep listen to my voice and I know them and they follow me,28 and I give to them life eternal, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand.
7 I tell you the truth, it is better for you that I should go away. For unless I go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.8 And he, when he comes, will convince the world regarding sin and regarding righteousness and regarding judgment \'97 9 regarding sin, because they do not believe in me;10 regarding righteousness, because I am going to the Father and you no longer see me;11 regarding judgment, because the Ruler of this world has been judged.
4 and thereby great and precious promises have been granted to us, that through them you may escape the corruption that is in the world through passion and become sharers in the divine nature,
3 First you should know this, that in the last days scoffers will come with their scoffing, living according to their own passions4 and saying, "Where is his promised coming? for since the fathers fell asleep all things remain as they have been since the beginning of the creation?"5 For they willfully forget that there were heavens of old and an earth formed out of water and through water by God's word.6 By these means the world that then was was flooded with water and destroyed.7 But the present heavens and the earth are by the same word treasured up and kept for fire on the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.
10 For such grief as God approves works a change of heart leading to salvation and is never to be regretted. But the grief of the world results in death.
13 Do not be surprised, brethren, if the world hates you.
19 We know that we are of God and the whole world lies in the Evil One.
31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
8 Jesus Christ is yesterday and to-day the same \'97 yes, and through the ages.
50 Jesus heard it and said to him, "Never fear. Only believe and she will be saved."
17 For if by the fall of one man death reigned through that one, much more those who receive the abounding grace and the free gift of righteousness will reign in life through one, that is, through Jesus Christ.
