"The World naturally steals away our Hearts from God, we are imperceptibly engag'd in the Pursuit of it, and are drawn into the Snare before we are sensible of the Danger." But... it's only an INORDINATE love that's bad. "Let us all be exhorted to moderate our Affections to the Things of this World."
