'Of This World' in the Bible
Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
But God made selection of the foolish things of this world so that he might put the wise to shame; and the feeble things that he might put to shame the strong;
God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things, and the things that are not, to nullify the things that are,
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:
Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
now the spirit which we have received, is not the spirit of this world, but that which comes from God; that we might know what he has graciously bestowed upon us.
Let no one deceive himself. If any of you thinks he is wise in the ways of this world, he must become a fool to become really wise.
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.
And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.
But the married man gives his attention to the things of this world, how he may give pleasure to his wife.
An unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the affairs of the Lord, so that she may be holy in body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the affairs of this world, that is, about how she can please her husband. I'm saying this for your benefit, not to put a noose around your necks, but to promote good order and unhindered devotion to the Lord.
If we have been planting the things of the Spirit for you, does it seem a great thing for you to give us a part in your things of this world?
And every man who takes part in the sports has self-control in all things. Now they do it to get a crown which is of this world, but we for an eternal crown.
