“As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him.” Now that’s a very wonderful statement. To begin, if you’ll notice, what does it mean to be a Christian?

Listen to Paul: “As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him.” Now that you’ve received Him, now walk in Him. And that, my friend, is a very wonderful thing—that’s what it means to walk in the Spirit, you see, today. Learn to walk through this life.
