Not Of This World. It is derived from these scriptures from the book of John the 8th chapter:
19Then they asked him, "Where is your father?"
"You do not know me or my Father," Jesus replied. "If you knew me, you would know my Father also." 20He spoke these words while teaching in the temple area near the place where the offerings were put. Yet no one seized him, because his time had not yet come.
21Once more Jesus said to them, "I am going away, and you will look for me, and you will die in your sin. Where I go, you cannot come."
22This made the Jews ask, "Will he kill himself? Is that why he says, 'Where I go, you cannot come'?"
23But he continued, "You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. 24I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am the one I claim to be,[a] you will indeed die in your sins."
25"Who are you?" they asked.
"Just what I have been claiming all along," Jesus replied. 26"I have much to say in judgment of you. But he who sent me is reliable, and what I have heard from him I tell the world."
27They did not understand

It stands for Not of This World. Christians use it referring to biblical scripture such as John 8:23 "But he continued, "You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. " It also means that Christians are "not of this world" but are "passing through". We are here on a mission from God but we will return back to Heaven where we are citizens, since we are "not of this world."
