True godliness doesn't turn us out of the world, but enables us to live better in it, and excites our endeavors to mend it... Christians should keep the helm and guide the vessel to its port; not meanly steal out at the stern of the world and leave those that are in it without a pilot to be driven by the fury of evil times upon the rock or sand of ruin.
