According to your belief, God created us all, which surely means God would want us all to be friends with each other and enemies with nobody. How can it be any other way?

@Carazaa It doesn't say that being a friend of the world is being an enemy of God. If God created the world, why would friends of it be enemies of God? That doesn't make sense to me, it's not logical.

@HairbrushDiva The world and God are opposed. It is Gods words in the post James 4:4

God tells us that when the Holy Spirit comes into our hearts we are not of this world, we are a "peculiar people", "set apart" for God.

To love the world is to love what is wordly..

We are in this world but we should struggle not to be a product of this world.. Rise above it.. Be a wise not cunning..
