"Failure to deal with the presence of sin can often be traced back to spiritual amnesia â€“ forgetting our new, true, real identity. As a believer, I am someone who has been delivered from the dominion of sin and who therefore is free and motivated to fight against the remnants of sin in my heart. You must know, rest in, think through, and act upon your new identity â€“ you are in Christ"

-- Sinclair B. Ferguson

He knew and believed in the deepest depths of his soul that nothing was too hard for the Lord, and that prayer could do anything that God could do.”
