What is the secret of holy living? Of dealing with sin as a child of God in my daily walk. It's being transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit through the word of God in the area of my mind. That's why we study the word of God when we come together to worship. We don't look for emotional experiences that will give us a high. We are looking for something more durable and life changing. When we turn from the word because we do not feel that it is enough, that it is adequate, that it is sufficient, we have turned from the only plan that God has to produce a godly person and the result of that is disastrous in all ways.
