"So as to live the rest of the time the time that remains after our conversion the rest of the time in the flesh not for human passions but for the will of God watch this rest of the time back to 3/4 for the time that is passed so now you've got the time that has passed and then conversion and then the rest of the time and we're supposed to live the rest of the time by God's will not human passions."

[00:06:09]
"Sensuality is having a body that is constantly throwing up desires to you and you just give way to them so this is kind of a bodily oriented fleshly oriented existence and that's a dangerous thing because back in Chapter say Ford or is it 211 beloved I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh that wage war against your soul and so we're talking about a wanting to live in a certain way that is going to war against your soul and destroy it." [00:06:51]
"Giving rise to desires that you give way to giving rise to bondage to all kinds of things drink in one case maybe pornography maybe laziness maybe gluttony so you move from the body to the desires to the stuff that gets a matter of addiction and then other people join you and you you start having big orgies and drinking parties and you you you encourage each other in your sin that is so sensual and full of desires and full of bondage to drink in this case and then terminating on idolatry which has been explicitly forbidden in the law of God." [00:07:41]
"Arm yourself with the way Christ thought about suffering so that when you suffer in the flesh you cease from sin and the rest of the time you live not for human passions but for the will of God with respect to this they are surprised that you don't join them anymore in this same flood of debauchery this flood of debauchery you don't join them anymore in that and they malign you." [00:08:47]
"They are surprised when you don't join them anymore and just a few verses later in verse 12 it says we should not be surprised that they are surprised and malign us beloved do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you as though something strange were happening to you they are surprised when you don't join them in this lifestyle anymore and they malign you which becomes part of the fire the fiery trial and you are not to be surprised when they are surprised." [00:09:37]
"There is a huge difference between a Christian and the before Christ and the after Christ of the Christian life." [00:10:22]
