"Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing, and I will receive you." (2 Cor. 6: 17.)
I Have heard some say, Is it not enough to come out from the world in thought? We know our deeds are the result of our thoughts, and if we are separated from the world in thought, we certainly are separated in person, for Science teaches us that both thought and action must be guarded.
It seems to me a very great error for one to keep on in the pleasures of the senses, and then deny the pain which follows that pleasure. Our text-book Science and Health, tells us, "The pains of sense are less harmful than its pleasures," and if we participate in its pleasures we surely should be glad to suffer our penalty, and thereby learn a lesson.
