Switching Sides...Or Changing Kingdom? (The Pursuit of Holiness Ch 5)


Listen Later

“Many Christians have a basic desire to live a holy life, but have come to believe they simply cannot do it. They have struggled for years with particular sins or deficiencies of character. While not living in gross sin, they have more or less given up ever attaining a life of holiness and have settled down to a life of moral mediocrity with which neither they nor God are pleased.” The Pursuit of Holiness
Does salvation ever feel like a struggle? Holiness feel unattainable? In this video we discuss what it truly means to leave the kingdom of darkness for the Kingdom of God. Often our response to becoming a Christian is reactionary, rather than provisional. We think we must react to the world around in order to avoid all its temptations and snares, rather than rest in the security provided us in Christ. Now, we must resist temptation. That's a given. There is a warfare to fight. We would do well to remember, that Satan was defeated by Christ at Calvary. So, when we are saved we don't just switch sides. We enter an eternal kingdom of righteous, peace, joy, and victory. Rejoice O' Christian! You are victorious in Christ!
