The Spiritual Clinic Quotes

“We have one of the most serious warnings against living the Christian life in the realm of the soul instead of in the spirit. It would seem that the enemy would facilitate such "Christianity" to a tremendous degree. The mental, emotional and volitional engrossment in "spiritual" things apart from or beyond a true Holy Spirit energizing will bring its own Nemesis, and the end may be despair. ... Then take your stand in your spirit, even against your soul and body if needs be, and against all hell. Stand upon the fact that He in Whom you have put your trust is "greater than our heart." Keep your eyes outside. Refuse introspection, dwelling upon yourself, your condition, your feeling, your symptoms. Look not for hope in yourself, but remember that He is your righteousness, your surety, your acceptance with God, your merit, your Intercessor.”
