Anti-conformity
Anti-conformity. The definition is lack of conformity; failure or refusal to conform. The Bible says, in Romans 12:2, (to paraphrase for a moment) that we shouldn't conform to the pattern of this world anymore, but be transformed by the renewing of our minds. According to that we need to be non-conformists. That means that we need to not do and think everything the world tells us too. Does that mean that everything "worldly" is bad? Of course not. It just means that we need to conform to God and his standards for our life, in everything, instead of the standards of everybody else.

I heard a great message about that. It had that verse and 1 John 2: 15-17. Pretty cool.
Good Post! You're right, not everything in the world is bad, but we need to store up our treasures in Heaven rather than on earth.
