You will walk here not parted from Him, but with your thoughts and your love, which are your truest self, going up where He is, until you drop 'the muddy vesture of decay' which unfits you whilst you wear it for the presence-chamber of the King, and so you will enter in and be 'for ever with the Lord.
Now, if we mark the ordinary scriptural representation, especially as to the last class, we cannot help seeing that there comes out this principle: The thing of all others that unfits men for the reception of Christ as a Saviour, and for the simple reliance on His atoning blood and divine mercy, is not gross, long profligacy, and outward, vehement transgression; but it is self-complacency, clean, fatal self-righteousness and self-sufficiency.
"What is your answer?" "Oh, I couldn't decide so quickly. I must think." "You mean you must see your young man again see whether there isn't some way of working it out with him." "That, too," replied she simply. "But it's nearly four o'clock " "I'll come back at seven for my answer." "No, I'll write you to-night." "I must know at once. This suspense has got to end. It unfits me for everything."

Montigny and Tabary dumbly demanded a share of the booty, which the monk silently promised as he passed the little bag into the bosom of his gown. In many ways an artistic nature unfits a man for practical existence. No sooner had the theft been accomplished than Villon shook himself, jumped to his feet, and began helping to scatter and extinguish the embers.
Good roads and better police arrangements also lessen the terrors of travelling in places where railways are still wanting.

"Ah, my dear Claus, I see you have too easy and gentle a nature to deal with wilful little mortals in an every-day way; besides, you have to think of so many that it unfits you for the care of a single one," said Boreas, in his least gruff manner. "I shall have to find another home for Flax-Flower." "Well," replied St. Nicholas, "I confess I can refuse nothing to a good child.
Her very excellence and faith make her exactly what they made Queen Mary a conscientious and therefore merciless persecutor.
