Who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil world… – Galatians 1:4

And He answering said, “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.” – Luke 10:27

Jesus has come to deliver us from the spirit of the world. The spirit of the world is, “I can swim; so, if everybody else be drowned, there will then be the more room for me.” “I fight for my own hand,” says the worldling, “and if, in the process, I crush the widow and the fatherless, I cannot help that, they should not get in my way.” The rules of political economy do not permit of anything like mercy; they are as inflexible as the laws of nature. They are something after this fashion, -“Grind down the poor; get as much as ever you can out of them for as little money as possible. Care for nobody but yourself. Mind the main chance; make money, honestly if you can, but if not, make it anyhow; only keep clear of the law, for it would be a mistake to fall into its clutches.” Now, Christ has come to gather out of the world a people who will not be possessed with this detestable spirit, but who will resolve to live for others rather than for themselves. We are to consider those who are around us, and to think what influence our conduct will have upon them. We are to love the Lord our God with all our heart, and mind, and soul, and strength, and to love our neighbor as ourselves; we are to love even our enemies; we are to do good to the unthankful and to the evil. We are in all ways, and according to the measure of our ability, to copy the example of our Father who is in heaven, who maketh His sun to shine and His rain to fall upon the evil as well as upon the good. O friends, see what Christ has come to do, even to separate unto Himself a people like unto Himself out of this present evil world! ~ C.H. Spurgeon
