Not That You Take Them Out Of The World

John 17:15,18 – My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one…As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world.

Matthew 6:13 – And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’

Application:

• ·         “The evil one” is Satan, who is especially active in the world, making God’s protection indispensable.
• ·         We may long for heaven, but it is on earth that our work is done.
• ·         God does not tempt.
