How does God go about working on our will?

He speaks the truth, the facts.

We come to know the facts.

Then we believe the facts to be true in our case.

Then we present. We obey.

The willing and the doing have to be set up by the knowing and believing.

This is why the US military was an unstoppable force in World War II.

Starting with an appeal to the will …

… before preparing the soil of the soul with the knowing and believing …

… is a recipe for failure.

What we believe is anchored in what we know.

The most sure knowing possible is anchored in the facts that God reveals to us.

What we choose and what we do is anchored in what we believe.

Because we know something about Christ, we believe something about us.

Always begin with the knowledge, the facts about Christ.

Start with Christ!

Never go right to ourselves without first stopping to grasp the facts about Christ.

I see myself in Christ, alive from the dead ones, and that means I, like Him, am alive to God in Christ Jesus.
 

Start with Christ -
and proceed to us.
