World-Class or Worldly?!

"Brothers, I could not address you as spiritual but as wordly ("carnal" in the King James version)-mere infants....You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere men"
(1 Corinthians 3:1,3)
VS.
"But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ." (Philippians 3:20) & "These that have turned the world upside down are coming here also" (Acts 17:6, KJV)

Are we, as Christians (individually), polluted by the world and therefore not unlike many of "the Worldlings" or are we allowing God to use us to impact the world in a profound way through His grace?!

Your insights are deep and true. It always amazes me how God times it perfectly so that just when we start feeling a little discouraged, He gives us a glimpse of the results and let's us see some of the fruit. He knows exactly what we need and gives us the grace for the moment to keep on keeping on!
