I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE!!!!! Andy, awesome post. It's the continual "mortification of the flesh" I reckon. This one was SO tough for me to understand. I grew up in the instant sanctification side of the tracks, and I questioned my salvation for YEARS as a result. I felt as if it was hopeless because, no matter how hard I TRIED, I just couldn't be perfect. Yeah, I know. Sad. The change that took place in me when I realized it was a PROCESS, and a lifelong one at that, had a HUGE effect on my life. Instead of flying to the "sin it up so that grace may abound" camp, I found that following Christ became "easier" to do, in the sense that I wasn't worried about me all the time...I was looking to "the author and perfecter of my faith." It is a daily putting off the old man and putting on the new. Thanks for writing, as always. And I love the new blog design.1 <abbr><em>Matties last blog post..<a href="http://treenewt.blogspot.com/2009/04/little-housecleaning.html" rel="nofollow">A Little Housecleaning</a></abbr></em> I’m not the only one?!!!

Andy, awesome post. It’s the continual “mortification of the flesh” I reckon. This one was SO tough for me to understand. I grew up in the instant sanctification side of the tracks, and I questioned my salvation for YEARS as a result. I felt as if it was hopeless because, no matter how hard I TRIED, I just couldn’t be perfect. Yeah, I know. Sad.

I credit the Holy Spirit for His role in Sanctification. I got laid off, so I am going to have time for fasting. Maybe that will finish the thing off, I won't feed it! Oh well, we are fighting the good fight. <abbr><em>will hapemans last blog post..<a href="http://willohroots.wordpress.com/2009/04/06/the-christian-life-a-study-in-humility/" rel="nofollow">The Christian Life, a Study in Humility</a></abbr></em> I still get those weird bad thoughts at inappropriate time, but not like I used to.
