17Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!

It is difficult on some level for all christians to give up the things we love to do, the music we love to listen to, and all the other things we love that are not of God, but we have to. In order to please the God and do his will, we must obey, "...all things are become new."

Romans 12:2
2Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is–his good, pleasing and perfect will.

This verse is an answer to anyone who believes that christians can be apart of the "world" AND apart of God. James 1:8 says, "A double minded man is unstable in all his ways". Revelation 3:16-17 says, "I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth." The Lord wants us to sacrifice our worldy desires the way he sacrificed his son for us (John 3:16). 2 Corinthians 17-18, says, "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God...". We give up little to gain the kingdom of God.
