The Christian life is a supernatural life marked by love, joy, peace, and patience, produced by the Holy Spirit when we live by his power. However, our sinful hearts are alive and well, and we struggle to obey God. The key to living the Christian life correctly is to start at the right place, acknowledging our sinful nature and our inability to live the Christian life by human effort. We must live by faith, depending on the Holy Spirit to give us the power to subdue our sinful nature and obey God.
