In this we agree .... brother Blume ... we are overcomers when we walk in the Spirit ...

we may disagree in the practicality ...

there are layers to this, imo, as there are layers to the sins each struggles with ... and layers to our entire being ... and layers and levels in the Spirit.

Not the black and white portrayal some who teach the doctrine of perfection seem to teach ...

In Jesus Christ ... we have the ultimate victory ...

We also seem to read Paul's words as always being commandments ... at times it is .... but for the most part it is pastoral advice and encouragement. Of course there is pastoral teaching in them also ... all of it based on Godly principles.
