Christians Separated from the World
John 15:19
If you were of the world, the world would love his own: but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world…


It is a remarkable act, that while the baser metals are diffused through the body of the rocks, gold and silver usually lie in veins; collected together in distinct metallic masses. They are in the rocks but not of them And as by some power in nature God has separated them from the base and common earths, even so by the power of His grace will he separate His chosen from a reprobate and rejected world.

(T. Guthrie, D. D.)
