He who has not died to worldly affection has not died to anything.
Death to natural affection proves one’s death to the world.
To covet and to lust after man’s affection demonstrates that the Christian has not yet died to self life.
His death to soul life is substantiated by his forsaking every affection other than that for God.
How Transcendent is a Spiritual Man!
He Walks Far Above human natural affection.
