How does one begin with a desire for a heart like David, only to wake up 20 years later with the cold, dead organ of Judas in their chest?
Take no thought captive
Stop confessing sin
Feed various lusts in secret
Submit your members to unrighteousness
Do not present your bodies as a living sacrifice
Refuse to die daily
Do your own will
Build your own kingdom
Recoil your hand from the plow
Mimic Lot’s wife
Insulate yourself from the Body
Attempt to save your life
Do not become like a little child
Neglect carrying your cross at all times
Hear only, never do
Lean solely on your own understanding
Do these things and your ribcage will become prison bars. Unbelief will creep in and around your heart and drag you to Sheol, where the tears will never cease and you’ll grind your teeth to powder.
