AGAIN FARLEY NOTES, “USING WILLPOWER TO OVERCOME WORLDLY SEDUCTION IS LIKE TELLING A MAN WHO HAS GONE WITHOUT WATER FOR THREE DAYS TO CONTROL HIMSELF AND QUIT BEING THIRSTY……

THE WORLDLY MAN IS CONVINCED THAT POPULARITY, SUCCESS, OR WEALTH WILL SLAKE HIS THIRST. BUT THESE ARE LIKE SPIRITUAL SALT WATER: THEY JUST MAKE YOU THIRSTIER.”

From Gene Edwards’ Sermon: Faith, Finances, and Fleecing
