"In the World"

Ellet J. Waggoner

A TRUE Christian living in the world is like a ship sailing on the ocean. It is not the ship being in the water that will sink it, but the water getting into the ship. So, in like manner, the Christian is not ruined by being in the world, which he must needs be, while he remains in the body, but by the world’s being in him.

The Present Truth 12, 5 (January 30, 1896), p. 73.
