Is Christianity Hard or Easy? Video by CS Lewis
How can we produce Godly results from our natural desires? As Job says “Who can produce a clean thing from an unclean thing? No one can” (Job 14:4). C.S. Lewis says: “If you remain a thistle you won’t grow figs. If I am a crab-apple tree all my apples will have the bitter crab taste. If you want to grow eating apples, I must allow myself to be turned into a different kind of tree. The real change must come at the roots, in the sap; it’s not much good hacking away at the branches.” The change must go deeper than the surface. The Natural Self must be given to God. We must be plowed up and resown with the new Seed – Christ and His desires for you.
