Shepherd of Hermas Similitude Fourth And refrain from much business, and you will never sin: for they who are occupied with much business commit also many sins, being distracted about their affairs, and not at all serving their Lord.[3] Tertullian On the Apparel of Women Book II ."[88] Cyprian Treatise II On the Dress of Virgins And the apostle again warns us, and says, "And they that buy, as though they bought not; and they that possess, as though they possessed not; and they that use this world, as though they used it not. For the fashion of this world passeth away."[28]
