JP summary - We are Christ. All our failures, sins, who we are is irrelevant, God only sees Christ.
The answer to temptation and sin is to see who we are in Christ. -
Now I would say the answer to temptation is the cross, our love for Christ and what is right, and
if we sin repentance, confession and acceptance of Christs forgiveness.
And the power of the walk is love working through our lives transforming us, so the old man dies
and is remade into the new man progressively as Christ works through our lives and heals and
teaches us His ways through obedience and transformation of our minds through the word,
the Holy Spirit and fellowship as well as anything else he cares to use.
But JP is only into the point of conversion, and the point when we are forgiven for the first time,
and know very little and grace is poured abundently on this young child in the Lord.
But this point is meant to be gone on from not continually preached as if this is the total spiritual
walk of maturity rather than this is the total walk of spiritual failure and hypocracy if nothing else
is ever done.
