Quote for today

“What must be noticed in Philippians is that the believer receives an ability to discern what is good, what is righteous, and what is conducive of love; and with this ability, the believer is able to stand pure and blameless “in the day of Christ” (1:10). It is not that the believer will be declared blameless on that day; the believer already is blameless, already is righteous, already is possessed of EPIGNWSIS to discern what is best, because of the re-formation wrought upon the believer in this lifetime, and because of the righteousness received from God in this lifetime. Such a change is truly a re-formation of the person.”—Stephen Finlan in Partakers of the Divine Nature, page 74
