Slay the Earthly - Rev. Peter Ameadaji

A pickpocket lost one hand for his first offence, the other for his second — and continued his trade with his teeth. Surgery doesn't change the heart. In this message from Colossians 3:5–9, we take up Paul's second instruction to the believer: put to death whatever belongs to the earthly nature — because the old self can't be renewed or reformed, only killed. Learn how to answer temptation like the sisters who RSVP'd "we died recently," why you can't double-date God and Satan, and how to slay sin at the thought level before it takes physical form. Sometimes the most loving thing a brother can say is, "Resist that temptation."
