The first line of Martin Luther's 95 Theses reads, “When our Lord Jesus said 'Repent' he meant that the whole of the Christian life should be repentance.” We could restate it in another way. Our redemption is not an event; it is a process. We learned last week that we cannot love Christ just a little bit. A healthy Christian is one who is growing. Paul illustrates this process in the Book of Ephesians with the putting off and putting on of clothing. As we put off the things that our flesh desires, we put on new, Christ-like desires. Now, Christ-likeness is not something that we can do for ourselves. It is a process that occurs as we submit ourselves to the Holy Spirit's authority in our lives. As you know, submitting is not an easy thing to do; it is a process of sometimes painful growth that occurs as we devote ourselves completely to Christ. If you take one truth from this message I want you to take the following: You must submit yourself to the Holy Spirit.
