World
My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. They are not of the world, even as I am not of it (John 17:15–16).
As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world (John 17:18).
If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will save it (Luke 9:23–24).
In Luke 9:49–50, Jesus tells his disciples not to oppose others who were not a part of their group. And in Luke 9:54–56, he tells his disciples not to seek retribution against a town in Samaria that refused them welcome.
