23. He hath lost his wonted 1taste in earthly things; his heart is not transported with the admiration of them, or the inordinate desire after worldly things. He loves not the world and this life as he was wont to do. Though he use the world, yet he easily confesseth himself to be a stranger and pilgrim here. He gives over the unnecessary pleasures and profits of this life, Heb. 11. 13. 1 Joh. 2. 14, 15. Rom. 8. 5. He is weary of the world, and willing to forgo society with the men of this world, the workers of iniquity, Psal. 6. 8, 9. and 36. 12. and 26. 1, 2, 3, 4.
