Psalms 45:10. Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father’s house;
We cannot know Christ thoroughly unless we leave off knowing the world. There must be a forgetting as well as a remembering. We are to forget our father’s house come right out from it. If Christ is to love his Church, it must be a nonconforming church in the deepest sense of that word. I mean not conformed to this world, but transformed by the renewing of its mind. Not only are we not to love the world, but we are not to think of it. "Forget also thine own people, and thy father’s house."
