This is a truth from N.T. Wright that is worth memorizing: "Learning to believe what doesn't at the moment feel true is an essential part of being a Christian." Pastor Brian Brodersen, in his message titled, "The Old and the New Self" taken from Colossians 3:5-14, shares that when tempted we don’t always feel like we’ve died to sin. But when our feelings don’t match the truth of Scripture, we need to stand firmly on the Word regardless of how we might feel.
