The battles we face as individual Christians now are part of a desperate rearguard action by an enemy that knows it is defeated. They are the twitching corpse -like reactions of the "old me", who has died with Christ. They are the struggles of those who have chosen the narrow way to life, but who daily live with those who are cruising a broad path that leads to destruction.
Our victory with Christ is assured- we just need to keep going until the final bell. Jesus tells us: "Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the crown of life "(Rev 2 v10).
