No need to rephrase what I said. The scriptures are not written that way. I mean every time we are told to "do" something we dont have a qualifying scripture that says "but we know it will be the Spirit doing it through you".
I have already stated that one obeys through the empowering Spirit. I dont believe its necessary to repeat every time I speak of obedience or works.
That is one of the main problems today. We are always being told there nothing we can do. Well the Bible has things for us to do on almost every page of it.
We DO have to do things. If we yield ourselves to the Spirit then the Spirit will empower us to do his will. If we are ABIDING IN YESHUA the desire to yield will be there. If not it wont.
