ded and surrounded Him, He
walked, and worked, and lived in the maintenance of that holiness which
we may imitate; not a holiness resulting from the union of the Divine
with the human, but a holiness belonging only to the latter. Had He
yielded to temptation, the whole of His mission would have failed, His
teaching would have had no force, His example would have perished with
His fame, and His death would have had no saving merit whatsoever. But
His holiness remained inviolate; and now it is the ground and the pattern
of ours. It is not enough that you be meek and lowly; it is not enough
that you be simple and ingenuous; it is not enough that you be
sympathetic and affectionate; you must be _holy_. "Jesu's is a
_spotless_ mind."

Brethren, suffer me to urge the exhortation of the text. O the dignity,
the blessedness of this conformity to Christ! Will you seek it for
yourselves. You and I are only Christians so far as we resemble Christ,
not a bit farther. Jesus is Himself the perfect embodiment of His own
teaching, the living, acting example of all those elements of character
and conduct which fit intelligent and immortal spirits for the Paradise
of God. Therefore, "let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ
Jesus." Seek it! exhibit it!!
