From the Biblical Perspective of "You adulteresses [disloyal sinners-flirting with the world and breaking your vow to God]! Do you not know that being the world's friend [that is, loving the things of the world] is being God's enemy? So whoever chooses to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God." (James 4:4) THEREFORE, "Set your mind and keep focused habitually on the things above [the heavenly things], not on things that are on the earth [which have only temporal value]." (Colossians 3:2) God bless, Jesus loves you 🥰🙏Complete
