following the Lord Jesus’ pattern to live a life by denying our natural life and live by the divine life
This is our Christian life and our church life – a life in which we daily learn – through many failures and some victories – to deny our natural life and live by the divine life. Once we received the Lord as our Savior and our life, He came into us as Another Life – […]
