The pleasures of sin exist. We cannot deny them. But we also dare not deny what follows in their wake: a voracious appetite, inflamed with eroticism, demanding more indulgence more often until a degenerative spiral captures the soul and drags us on a never ending descent into deeper patterns of immorality and illicit behaviour... Lust goes beyond the sexual. Lust can show itself in a variety of forms: covetousness, gluttony, drunkeness, power hunger, or unbridled ambition, to name a few

Christians are not patched-up sinners, they are new creations.

The yoke you wear determines the burden you bear.

A fast is not a hunger strike. Fasting submits to God's commands. A hunger strike makes God submit to our demands.

You cannot be responsible for salvation until first you've been responsible for sin.
