old man

Have we put to death the old man, the part of us that rises up against what the Lord would have
us to do?? Is our past still hounding us, even though we know Jesus took care of it. Are we still
having trouble with our carnal self or our materilistic self?? Do we don more things of the world
then things of God's nature??
How can we live like that?? Paul says "the things I want to do, I don't do and the things I don't
want to do I do" It is not just a problem you or me might have, the apostles had it to.
Prayer and walking in the Word and having a mentor or accountability partner comes in
handy.

Jesus will help us with temptation as long as we give it all to him and strengthen our will by
prayer.
