" 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."

1 John 2:15-17

This pretty must tells the future of the

world and the church. It will not be the

Utopia that some want us to hope for.
