Not of the world but in the world
Jesus reminds us that, we do not belong to the world. What is the world in the Bible? The word "world" or "cosmos" refers to a world system ruled by Satan. In Christ, believers are no longer of the world; they are no longer ruled by sin, nor are they bound by the principles of the world. Through baptism, we being changed into the image of Christ, causing the world to be transformed as we bring Christ light into it. Our living in this physical world does not mean, conformity to its anti-values of corruption and sin. Rather, we are to conform ourselves and our minds to the values of the kingdom of Jesus Christ (Romans 12:1-2). This is should become our daily activity and commitment.
Jesus, I trust in you
