But you, O man of God, flee these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience and gentleness. I Timothy 6:11
But you, O man of God, flee these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience and gentleness. I Timothy 6:11
The pursuit of happiness is to pursue God who gives us all things to enjoy! The love of money on the other hand brings only greed and selfishness. We are spiritual beings although this body of death we drag along hinders our pure Devotion to the One who provides all of our needs!
The war between the spirit and the flesh rages on until we make a stand to walk in the spirit and not carry out the deeds of the flesh! This is our mission in this life, to pursue the divine nature of God being transformed by the continual conviction of the Holy Spirit upon our conscience which produces sanctification.
When one is born again, he becomes a child of God and like human children we grow and inherit the characteristics of our Father. This is the transformation brought about by the Holy Spirit who molds us and conforms us to godliness!
Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. I Timothy 6:12
