If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, and might save some of them.
For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?
For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.

That no flesh should glory in his presence.
|
1 Corinthians 1:27-29
|
Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:

If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.
|

|
1 Corinthians 7:31
|
But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.

Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
|
Ephesians 1:21-23
|
Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.

Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called?

But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.

And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked:
(For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;)
The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:

And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
