Training? I thought we were transformed into Christlike beings?
Nonsense! For we serve a commanding officer - why will transformation come when we leave everything to the officer! Discipline comes in hand with the Grace that is given to us! Grace is the will of God implanted in you so that you may have the desire to change and be transformed.
Acting on that desire is then faith - let your faith be completed by your actions!

Many people think that spiritual disciplines are unnecessary, or even Catholic in origin; but the early Christians did so, without even referring to them as spiritual disciplines. An outflow of their abundant life.
Bible reading, memorization of scriptures, meditation on scripture, evangelism, frugality, fasting, prayer and good works.
I will continue to grow! There is hope yet!
