4.33 The Fast Life

A life spent gratifying and pacifying the flesh through carnal want and pleasure is the fast life that the world and culture peddle to consumers to hurry up and buy daily. The fast life is a life spent living for the flesh or walking in the Spirit. Jesus said to his disciples, If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me (Matthew 16:24). The lie of instant gratification is repackaged and sold in every generation. We, as Christians, err when we do not know the Scriptures or the power of God (Matthew 22:29) to move in our life, marriage, and family.
