Ruin by Worldliness
Ephesians 2:2
Wherein in time past you walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air…


When Henry the Fourth of France asked the Duke of Alva's opinion respecting some of the astronomical mysteries of heaven, he said, "Sire, I have so much to do on earth that I have no leisure to think of heaven."

(Charles Stanford, D. D.)
