It is true also that the grosser manifestations of fallen human nature
are part of the kingdom of this world. Organized amusements with their
emphasis upon shallow pleasure, the great empires built upon vicious and
unnatural habits, unrestrained abuse of the normal appetites, the
artificial world called "high society." These all are of the world. They
are all part of that which is flesh, which builds upon flesh and must
perish with the flesh. And from these things the Christian must flee.
All these he must put behind him and in them he must have no part.
Against them he must stand quietly but firmly without compromise and
without fear.
