Born to Overcome

We've been saved for the purpose of being transformed into the likeness of Jesus Christ. This transformation is the essence of the victorious Christian life, and it is the inevitable result of the new birth. It springs from roots that are firmly anchored in faith that God Himself has supplied, and it manifests a love for others and a love for God that seeks His pleasure above all, and gives us the confidence to live obediently. Strive to put off your sin and your hatreds and to put on Christ! In Him, your victory is not only assured, it is required.
