The 'flesh' is too bad to be cleansed; it must be crucified.

Not until we take the place of a servant can He take His place as Lord.

A Christian life is an unending engagement on the battlefield.

We may be forced to consume considerable time before the spirit cooperates. For example, God would like to enlarge the scope of our prayer to include the nations in order to defeat all the behind-the-scene works of Satan. Or He may want us to intercede for all sinners worldwide for the entire church.

The Christian life from start to finish is based upon this principle of utter dependence upon the Lord Jesus.

God asks for men who are totally broken and who will follow Him even to death to work for Him.

A person who wholly follows the Lord is one who believes that the promises of God are trustworthy, that He is with His people, and that they are well able to overcome.
