DISCIPLINE:
PERSONAL
But I can hear someone protest, saying “I wanted to get into the Christian life, the spiritual faith, in order that I might be freed from necessity and from a law of having to do things regularly.”
Well, you have missed it, my brother! You might as well close your Bible and walk out because you are in the wrong church and the wrong pew and the wrong dispensation! God would have His people learn regular holy habits and follow them right along day by day.
He doesn’t ask us to become slaves to habits, but He does insist that our holy habits of life should become servants of His grace and glory.
