Need to Repeatedly Die

Per a wonderful blog by a close friend titled It's a Beautiful Gospel

...

The following idea was highlighted in a DVD series by Rev. Paul Zahl:

It is a pervasive idea in Christianity that once someone is saved, they are then able to master life (with the Spirit’s help). Put more bluntly, Christians often think they have control.

This is why Christians need to continually die to self. God is in control.

Thanks Rev. Zahl for the reminder, and Dan for posting this.
