John tells us that we cannot love both God and the world. What does it mean to love the world? Surely the "world" is not the people or the place, right? Yes, the "world" refers to Satan's philosophy of life that is caught up in pleasure, possessions and positions. Surely we can enjoy the pleasures of life, surely we should work to achieve positions in society, surely having possessions is not a bad thing. Right! But the problem comes in when we love these things, when we love pleasure, fame, money and all it can provide us. It is at that point that we need to be concerned about our relationship with God.
