In essence, the difference between
   these two pathways to righteousness
             boils down to this:


Working in the flesh to please God amounts
    to performing CPR on A CORPSE:
 Our old, dead crucified-with-Christ self.

  We struggle to clean this corpse up and
   make it worthy of God’s grace and
         acceptable in His sight.

No wonder we’re frustrated with our lives!
In essence, the difference between
these two pathways to righteousness
          boils down to this:

In essence, the difference between

             boils down to this:


Working in the Spirit to please God amounts
  to DISCOVERING OUR NEW SELVES:
     Which God has already created!

We live to discover and put on this already-
  in-existence New Self, made in truth to
 reflect God’s righteousness and holiness.

       Stop CPR! Walk in the Spirit!
