What the Bible says about Practice, Spiritual
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Deuteronomy 6:4-7 He covers every aspect of every day. The laws of God have to be considered and committed to memory for life. They have to be practiced, practiced, practiced. In a way, we have to drill, drill, drill, like a soldier in boot camp, so that they become instinctive behaviors. We have to force ourselves, if need be, to yield to them. This is our part in spiritual circumcision because human nature will put up a fight. It does not want to yield. John W. Ritenbaugh The Covenants, Grace, and Law (Part Seven) Related Topics: Drill | Human Nature | Human Nature, Perversity of | Law | Law Keeping | Lawkeeping | Soldier Metaphor | Spiritual Circumcision | Yielding to God | Yielding to God's Will
