The Christian faith begins not with a big DO but with a big DONE.
The 'flesh' is too bad to be cleansed; it must be crucified.
Only as they cease to seek anything by themselves and only as they take the position of the teachable shall they be taught by the Spirit truth which they are able to digest.
The fruit of the Spirit is . . . self-control
A Christian life is an unending engagement on the battlefield.
Victory is the normal experience of a Christian; defeat should be the abnormal experience.
