Why Do I Keep Sinning if I’m a Christian?

Why do Christians continue to struggle with sin after believing, repenting, and turning to Jesus? In this episode, Phil responds to a letter from a man battling pornography, anger, shame, and the fear that his continued failures mean he has no place in the Kingdom of God. Phil explains the difference between temptation and choosing to remain in sin, why grace is not permission to live however we want, and what it means to walk by the Spirit. Following Jesus is not a 100-yard dash. It is a lifelong race of repentance, faith, self-control, and dependence on the grace of God.
