God takes the offensive to the enemy, we do not except in unusual cases when we are exerting Christ&#8217;s [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=communityofjesus.wordpress.com&amp;blog=10551277&amp;post=8390&amp;subd=communityofjesus&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

That we&#8217;re to be pressing toward the mark of God&#8217;s high calling in Christ Jesus. Anticipation. It does add a lot to life.
