Romans 14:7-9 – "For none of us lives for ourselves alone, and none of us dies for ourselves alone. If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord. For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living."

1 John 2:15-17 – "Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. For everything in the worldβ€”the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of lifeβ€”comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever."
