I started this book today and I really want to meditate on it's contents. We as humans are not created for compromise, we're created for purity and holiness. I'm reminded through this book to catch the "little foxes" because "it is compromise on the little issues that leads to greater downfalls." Here are a few thoughts I want to ponder and process from "The Pursuit of Holiness" by Jerry Bridges:
1) "Will you begin to look at sin as an offense against a holy God, instead of as a personal defeat only?"
2) "Will you begin to take personal responsibility for your sin, realizing that as you do, you must depend on the grace of God?"
3) "And will you decide to obey God in all areas of life, however insignificant the issue may be?"
