Oh let the Son of God and found you with his spirit and his life,

let him fill your heart and satisfy your soul.

Oh, let him have the things that hold you

and his spirit like a dove will descend upon your life and make you

whole. you home.

Welcome to the Word for today,

featuring the Bible Teaching of Pastor Chuck Smith,

founder of the Calvary Chapel Movement.

This radio program is a verse by verse study through the entire

Bible. And on today's edition of the word for today,

Pastor Chuck continues with a new nature as we pick up in Jeremiah chapter 13 verse 23.

And now with today's message, here's pastor chop.

People think, well, I can never be a Christian.

I don't want to be, you know, I don't want to be a hypocrite, but I can never do that life.

And so they don't accept the Lord because they say, well, I can never do it.

Of course you can't do it, and no one expects you to do it.

You can't do it apart from the power and the work of the always

spirit and giving you a new nature. But God, that's what he does. He gives me a whole new nature,

a nature that is after him. So God speaks about the fact that a man is what

he is by nature. He cannot change except by God's power.

Therefore will I scatter them as stubble that passes away by the wind of the

wilderness.
