520 This resource uncovers the presence of worldliness and
helps believers learn to relate to the world while
resisting its influence in their lives. People today are
saturated in technology and prosperity. They are bombarded
with endless luxuries: clothes to wear, cars to buy,
vacations to take, entertainment to enjoy. Yet this world,
which offers so many pleasures, is actively opposed to God
and the truth of His Word. How, then, is the believer to
relate to the world in which he or she lives? Worldliness:
Resisting the Seduction of a Fallen World uncovers the
presence of worldliness-the cravings of sinful man, the
lust of his eyes, and the boasting of what he has or does.
Worldliness then reveals how Christians are to engage a
fallen world and boldly preach the gospel, yet not be
conformed and ultimately seduced by the system of this
world. As readers learn to identify the presence of
worldliness in the areas of media, modesty, music, and
material possessions, they can begin to resist its
influence in their lives and instead pursue eternal
godliness.
