Don't you know the friendship of the world is emnity with God? We are separate from the friendship of the world. We are righteous by faith, the world is unrighteous. We sow righteousness and reap life everlasting, they who sow sin reap death. We will suffer persecution, but the kingdom of heaven belongs to us. They will be accepted by their own, because they are out of the world. But we are not out of the world.
