What the first Adam couldn't do in a perfect environment, Christ did in his weakness. Adam was not starving, had no stress and could have satisfied his hunger from any other tree, yet he failed. Christ was literally starving in a wilderness and was at his greatest weakness. Yet Christ overcame in his weakness, what Adam could not do in his strength. Man in all his strength cannot please God, but Christ overcame the world. We cannot obey God in our human strength but in Christ we can overcome.
@erdenpilger Learning that we cannot obey God in our human strength but that "Christ in me" is the secret to the overcoming life, I have learned and am still learning. I admit I am not there yet. Many many trials and years of failing and trying to please God, and through these the Spirit has been teaching me, squarely based on Gods word, How to live out trust in God and having no confidence in the flesh. 1) through praying I recieved answers to my spiritual needs for when I did not pray I suffered spiritually, but as I prayed I learned that God was willing to supply my needs only as I prayed.
2) when I start losing joy or peace, then it's a sign I'm not walking spiritually and therefore through prayer and scripture reading I regain my spiritual walk. 3) reading lives like George Muller, Hudson Taylor's, john bunyan, and Watchman nee greatly help. Meeting together with like minded Christian's help restore and revitalize me. Reminding myself of Gods promises, these help as I'm tempted.
@Justinmartyr << We cannot obey God in our human strength but in Christ we can overcome.
How does that work out in daily life when you're tempted and don't think spiritual?
