To grow in Christ, you must devote yourself to reading His Word, the Bible, and spending time in daily prayer. Acquiring knowledge of the truth is pivotal on your journey as a believer. It is also crucial to join a community of believers, the body of Christ, and find a faithful mentor who can provide guidance and facilitate your spiritual growth. By doing so, the allure and pull of your former sins will gradually diminish and fade away, as this becomes the natural course of living in Christ.
