If only we would exert ourselves and take a firm stand on this battle, we would see how God comes to our aid, for He is always ready to help those who put their trust in Him. He even provides occasions for us to do battle so that we will overcome and be victorious.
If our religion consists only in outward observances, our piety will soon come to an end. We had better lay our axe to the root, that being purged from our passions, we may possess our soul in peace.

It is easy to take a stand when you realize the battle is not ours it is the Lords. The great part is we WIN! Our passion should be to follow Christ, His passion was to lay down His life that we might be saved. We have to come to the place that we die to the passions of our flesh and be transformed by the renewing of our minds. If you are going to be a christian then there are certain things we just do not do. If you are not willing to let go of your fleshly desires then go back to the world because you are just wasting your time. You are heading on a path that will lead to the Lord saying "Depart from me I never knew you worker of inquity (sinner).
