How is it that we are saved? How is it that the sin which rules our flesh can be overcome? When I realized that without Jesus Christ in my life each and every day, I would naturally revert back to the creature I once was, my faith would begin to change at once within me. I came to understand that temptation and sin did not go away when I first believed, but instead had to be held at bay, and that I was allowed a moment by moment victory over it through Jesus Christ, my Savior.
