What Is the Gospel? (1Cor 15)
The gospel is the good news that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died for our sins and rose again, eternally triumphant over his enemies, so that there is now no condemnation for those who believe, but only everlasting joy.

How to walk in the Spirt?
- Rom 12:1-2 Be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind
- 2Cor 10:5 Bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ
When a thought comes in your mind ask:
- ASK – Is this from God or Satan?
- God is works of the Spirt
- Satan lust of the flesh
- God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it (1 Corinthians 10:13)
- Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. (James 4:7)
You have a free will, even as a born-again Child of God you will always have your free will, you must choose to please God or please the flesh, the more you chose to Please God the more you grow in Holiness, the more you chose the desires of the flesh, the more you give Satan hold on to your life
