John 14:30
I will not speak with you much longer, for the prince of this world is coming. He has no hold on me,
John 15:19
If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.
John 17:9

John 17:16
They are not of the world, even as I am not of it.
John 17:25
"Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me.
1 John 2:15
[ Do Not Love the World ] Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
1 John 2:16
For everything in the world—the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does—comes not from the Father but from the world. _________________ YHWH is my God and Jesus is my Lord

Jesus says His followers are not of this world. And He also says His followers are salt and light of the world. According to this statement, mainstream churches are not Jesus' followers. I would like to list worldly practice of mainstream churches.
1)They approve of the military practice for His followers.
This is plain worldly because the approve killing their enemy like the rest of the world when Jesus commands us to "love your enemy".
This world kill each other when other nation does not agree with their country's welfare.
2)They don't strive to obey Jesus' teachings and commandments because they believe you don't have to obey Jesus to be saved.
This is also against Jesus because He clearly commands us to "obey His commandments". When we don't strive to obey His commandments, we surely would behave like this world with our witnessing. There is no way we can be salt and light of the world if we don't strive to obey His teachings and commandments.
3)They persecute non-trinitarians as cult and non-believers claiming to be saved and are the true believers.
This is also against Jesus' word because Jesus never said you have to believe Jesus is God to be saved. Non-trinitarians believe Jesus is Son of God and Savior of the world. Jesus expects His followers to be godly like He is. He does not approve of hypocrisy and hypocrites will not inherit God's kingdom. He says we know them by their fruit, not by their doctrines. He does not approve of lip servers who says "Jesus is God" yet don't strive to be godly as He commands us to do.
These three are the major anti-Christ and worldly practice of mainstream churches. _________________ YHWH is my God and Jesus is my Lord
