Can't Believe I Did It Again
December 8, 2021
Summary
We all battle besetting, habitual sin. The normal experience of the Christian in this fallen world is to battle against the corruption of our flesh. This war will go on until we die or Christ returns. We struggle to process this battle, though. We are often discouraged. And the church hasn't always helped. In this episode, Jon and Justin have a historical, theological, and biblical discussion on the battle against the flesh and the hope of Christ.

Hi, this is Justin.
Today on Theocast, we're going to be considering besetting sins, habitual sins, the whole I can't believe that I've done this again.
In other words, we're going to be talking about the regular Christian experience of the battle against the flesh.
It's hard, it can be very discouraging, and at points, the church has not helped us in this battle against the flesh, has not helped us to think through the accusations of Satan and even of our own consciences.
So, John and I today are going to do a little bit of history talk.
We're going to think theologically, we're going to think biblically about this.
We hope to encourage us all in the Lord Jesus Christ as we continue to wage war against our flesh, and then over in SR, we're going to answer some potential objections, the yeah, but guys.
And so, we hope that's also helpful to you and instructive for you.
Stay tuned.
