Worldly Friendship?

Worldly Friendship?

From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence,
even of your lusts that war in your members? Ye lust, and have not: ye
kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye
have not, because ye ask not. Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask
amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. Ye adulterers and
adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity
with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the
enemy of God.

James 4:1-4 KJV

As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when
you lived in ignorance. But just as he who called you is holy, so be
holy in all you do; for it is written: "Be holy, because I am holy."

1 Peter 1:14-16 NIV

For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of
the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but
is from the world. The world is passing away, and also its lusts; but
the one who does the will of God lives forever.

1 John 2:16,17 NASB

And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your
bodies to God. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice - the kind he
will accept. When you think of what he has done for you, is this too
much to ask? Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but
let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.
Then you will know what God wants you to do, and you will know how
good and pleasing and perfect his will really is.

Romans 12:1,2 NLT

God bless you.
