Contributed by Gary Christensen on Mar 15, 2016

What's wrong with me? I want to serve God, but, instead, I sin! I want to Live in the Spirit, but, instead, I'm still living in The Power of my Flesh! Maybe it's because i have Two Dogs living inside of me! The story of the two dogs. (Our Two Natures)

Contributed by Eddie Snipes on Sep 2, 2002
