Conceit is an exaggerated, over-inflated view of self. Conceit operates by challenging and envying others.

Christians must be killing sin in their lives.

The Resurrection of Jesus Christ was not just an event from 2,000 years ago. Easter affects the everyday.

The law cannot conform us to Christlikeness. That is the Spirit's work. Theonomy's attempt to bind to the law is without biblical warrant.

The world is out of control because we lack self control. As the people of God, we must be characterized by self control. Jesus is the model of self control. As we grow, we reflect him.

Jesus is gentle and lowly. He treats the insignificant with tenderness. He touches the unclean. He takes in the scandalous. He treats the enemy. We reflect his gentleness.

In all our failure, suffering, and doubt, God is faithful. The Holy Spirit conforms us into his likeness, including faithfulness.

God's goodness is the sum of who he is: compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in lovingkindness and truth. As we follow the Spirit, we are shaped in goodness.

God's character is kind. He demonstrates his kindness to all people, in kindness he saves us, and his kindness is never ending. God's people mirror his kindness.

Patience is steadfastness, endurance and forbearance. God demonstrates patience toward us and his patience is manifested through us.
