Articles, Bible studies, and sermons that contain 1 John 2:15:

I John 2:15-17
Excerpted from: Faith (Part 4)

The second lesson: Saving ones life also pertains to way of life, manner of living. It includes our hopes, our dreams, our aspirations, our traditions, our attitudes and relationships, all of these things that have come from this world, and the world helps to form and make us what we are, in many cases in opposition to God. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God, and this is why John warns in I John 2:15 to love not the world. The world is cosmos. It is the world apart from God. It is human society organized and regulated upon false principles, false values, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, and it is these things that have made us what we are before God calls us and it is these things that we have to repent of and be converted from.

I John 2:15-17
Excerpted from: Jesus in the Feasts (Part One): Unleavened Bread

Now we have a link to reality and truth. It is not truth if it does not last. It is not really working toward eternal life. So he is saying, do not eat leavened bread. Right?

You want to keep on track? Keep consuming the bread of life, digesting the bread of life, and imitating the bread of life in our outward actions.

I John 2:15-17
Excerpted from: Prepare

This is what Romans 12:1 is talking about. Do not have a warm regard for the world. Do not be in love with the world.

We cannot love the world. The world is going to pass away. The closer we draw to God, the less effect the world is going to have on us.

I John 2:15-16
Excerpted from: Revelation 2-3 and Works

Now that's pretty clear. Why would John say such a thing if it were not possible for us to be disloyal to the Family of God, to God Himself, and to the way of God? You see there is still an attraction for this world, and for Satan that dwells within us.
