Are you “pursuing spiritual perfection”? Or: Are you deep in the miry clay, still, lost in your sinfulness? Want to get out? Turn. Get yourself to Jesus through sincere and truthful prayer. Christians do not have to sin. You once turned – to it. And so it is a choice also to turn from it, from what has ensnared you – and turn to Jesus in repentance. It’s a choice: be faithful once again, or stumble like a drunk, eat vomit like a dog, wallow like a pig.
Born of God
To be saved, you must die to yourself, and then be reborn – like a grain of wheat dies to then be born again to new life. Jesus said this clearly in John 3: “You must be born again.”
The non-stop work of God inside you and me
Did you know that God is at work? He is working non-stop inside you and me and all us puny mud men humans that He keeps creating.
