Actually God in his grace and mercy gives us all a measure of time to "get it right" We may all begin as "pathetic losers"
but this should not be the confession of those who are in Christ.
It is the faithfulness of Christ, His life and sacrifice and apart from Him, we are will forever be pathetic losers. We never outgrow the need for the Continual Flow and the recent idle chatter on TT is proof of that fact. We are all guilty all of the time. He is forgiving all of the time. Do we get stronger and stronger. Absolutely. Is total and complete spiritual victory possible? Yes. Will it happen? No -- not in this lifetime.
We are in the "seed" stage of our development. The next life is the "flower stage."
All hale to flower power!!
John
