I am saved by grace, apart from works. I am born-again. I am a child of God. I am 'in the kingdom'. I am saved forever because Jesus lives and is making intercession on my behalf. No one can pluck me out of His hand.
I am spiritually arrogant.
Since all of the above quoted verses are true, I find my flesh becoming bolder and bolder in its cries for attention. What does it matter? Oh, sure, I shouldn't 'continue in sin so that grace can be seen in abundance' but grace will abound if need be.
Simply put, I have become calloused toward the depraved, sinful nature of my heart.
I beg each of you to pray that God will, by His Spirit, break my heart over the exceeding sinfulness of my own heart.

Keith,
My point wasn't that I'm struggling with 'sins of the flesh', though that happens occasionally; rather, I minimize the darkness and depravity of my heart. There was a time when my heart broke over the exceeding sinfulness of my humanity. Now, I just brush it off and walk on.
I'm a praying
Rich
