Discipleship Journal, Issue 29 (September/October 1985)
Overview
Top Highlights
“Can we really control our attitudes this way? Yes—if we draw on our resources of righteousness in Christ. God isn’t in the habit of expecting the impossible of His children. For every command He gives us resources to obey.” (source)
“What we permit to reach our mind through our senses will greatly influence our thought life, whether we want it to or not. Every immoral image carelessly taken in, every thought not under control, programs the mind for immorality.” (source)
“There is no shortcut, no pill to swallow that magically creates the spiritual and moral filter I’m talking about. It is the product of regular, sustained, disciplined meditation on the Lord.” (source)
“The mind cannot remain empty. If you are to stop thinking about one thing, you must fix your attention on something else.” (source)
“Lust is meditating on and desiring someone sexually when we have no lawful right to sexual relations with him or her.” (source)
