If I take up the Bible, and say to many Christians, " Do you look into this book, saying, ' Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?' " They say "Ah, that would cut us off from everything; we are so weak, we have eternal life, but we never can overcome the world." Ah, (I answer) you cannot, and why not? Because it is you and not Christ. It is only through faith in Him that victory is obtained.
