"We are more concerned about our own victory over sin than we are the fact that sin grieves the heart of GOD. We cannot tolerate failure in our daily struggle with sin chiefly because we are SUCCESS oriented, not because we know it is offensive to GOD. [...] GOD wants us to walk in obedience, not victory. Obedience is oriented toward GOD. Victory is oriented towards self."
