Lets pray:
Wednesday night we had our youth group at the church office.
And let me tell you, we look forward to Wednesday Night Youth.
We have some awesome kids here ya’ll.
These guys know the Word and that is a credit to you parents.
You guys do an awesome job and I want you to know that.
We are going through the Not a Fan series.
Last weeks lesson goes perfectly with this mornings sermon.
So, to prime our text this morning I want to use an example he gave in the lesson…the point was you’re going to have to choose sides.
One example he used was pretty weak so Im going to make it more realistic.
He used Oklahoma vs. Oklahoma State.
I mean, its somewhat of a rivalry but when I was a GA at Auburn Coach Tuberville said this to a news reporter the week we were practicing for the Iron Bowl.
The reporter asked him about all the games being played during rivalry week and he said, “look, its not a rivalry unless someone gets stabbed”.
Thats the typical Iron Bowl…Auburn vs. Alabama.
Those people are nuts!
See, you cant go to the Iron Bowl and cheer for Alabama AND Auburn…you’re going to have to pick a side and stay there.
There is no such thing as someone cheering for Auburn and Alabama at the Iron Bowl.
Its cant happen.
You MUST Choose a side!

Lets look at vs 15
Lets pray:
Well…thats pretty clear isn’t it?
There isn’t an easy way around this one is it?
This is a fact!
If people love the ‘world’ they do not love the Father.
Any questions concerning this verse?
Alright, lets keep moving.
Im just kidding… there are a few things to point out.
It says, “Do not love the world or the things in the world”.
What in the world?
Does this mean that we are not suppose to love “every individual in the world”?
It says, “the world”.
No, that is not what it is talking about.
Obviously.
John talks fo “the world” in three different ways in his writings:
sometimes he is talking about the Universe, Creation
2. sometimes he is talking about ‘life on earth’
3. other times he uses the phrase “the world” when talking about “the life of human society as organized under the power of evil”
Many people say, “just love” but the question is “just love what?” Everyone loves something.
Everyone loves many things.
It is the object of our love that matters.
Is the object of our love “the world” or is the object of our love “the Father”.
When we make anything other than the God the object of our love it leads to death.
So how does someone “love the world”?
So how does someone “love the world”?
So how does someone “love the world”?
verse 16:
Here are the three things that are from the world:
the desires of the flesh
the desires of the eyes
the pride of life
So what are these?
The desires of the Flesh
Why do we sin?
Here is the question…are we sinners because we sin or do we sin because we are sinners?
We sin because we are sinners.
Mark 7:
Our flesh craves the things of this world because we are born with a sin nature ().
We talked about this Wednesday night with the youth.
When we listen to music, young kids, when you listen to music with a big “BOOM” where the bass is kicking…you say, “IM not listening to the words, I just like the beat”.
That is your flesh, your gut that likes that.
You may think you are just listening to the beat but the words are still sinking in your head and you are being educated by the music whether you want to admit it or not.
the flesh craves sexual things, the flesh craves drunkeness.
This is not from the Father, it is from the World.
The desires of the eyes
A few things here.
First, the eyes are the gateway to the mind aren’t they?
Isn’t it what we see that gets in our heads and feeds our fleshly desires?
We look at things with our eyes and we covet the thing we look at, the thing we stare at.
The flesh is already weak and the eyes feed it.
The things we desire more than God are the things we are always focusing on.
We think:
if i could just have “that” I would be happy.
If I could just look like “her” I would feel good about myself
The Pride of Life
What is this “pride of life” that comes from the world?
It is the pride that comes from worldly possessions.
the love of the world, the pride of life, is when we get our significance from our possessions.
we long to be satisfied in our “title”, our “position at work”
We feel that we will be fulfilled if people just saw me as “somebody”.
the definition for PRIDE here is: a self-exalting, self-absorbed conceit of one’s own superiority; especially one that believes that all achievements are of their own doing.
