"To walk as Christ walked is to love them that hate us, to pray for them that persecute us, to bless them that curse us, and to do good to them that do evil to us; but still with an 'as' of similitude, but not with an 'as’ of equality, Mat. v. 44-47."

"To walk as Christ walked is to walk humbly, holily, justly, righteously, meekly, lowly, lovingly, fruitfully, faithfully, uprightly, with an 'as' of quality or similitude, but not with an 'as' of equality ; for that is impossible for any saint on earth-to walk so purely, so holily, so blamelessly, so unspottedly, so spiritually, so heavenly as Christ walked ; that is, with an 'as' of equality.
