“How important is it crucify the flesh? Without it the Christian cannot humble self, deny self, deeply repent, stop sinning, walk in holiness, get your prayers answered, and grow in hunger for God. And without humility, repentance, hunger, holiness, fasting and prayer, a person will not be able to receiving God’s blessings, promises, power, and revival.” -Johnson and Pearl

When will be flesh be dead to sin?

When you crucify it everyday!

“When will be flesh be dead to sin? When you crucify it everyday! Crucifying the flesh once a week will not suffice, as the flesh will definitely try to come back from the dead. So, Christian must crucify the flesh DAILY!" -Johnson and Pearl

Luke 9:23 King James Version
“And He (Jesus) said to them all, If any man will come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me."

Galatians 5:24 King James Version
“And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts."

“When will be flesh be dead to sin? When you crucify it everyday!

Crucifying the flesh once a week will not suffice. Even if you crucify your flesh fully today, tomorrow your flesh might be tempted to sin and it will try to come back from the dead. So, Christian must crucify the flesh DAILY!

Can the flesh be crucified all in one day? Can the flesh be crucified completely, once and for all? No! Nobody can take a bath one day and be clean forever. Bathing yourself and keeping yourself clean is a daily choice and process!

Likewise, so is the daily choice of crucifying your flesh!

The only way to crucify the flesh “completely" is if you crucify it “daily" by your free will and choice. God wants to see Christians renew their willingness to crucify the flesh daily, because this proves that you are willing to “take up your cross daily and follow the Lord Jesus".

Luke 9:23 King James Version
“And He (Jesus) said to them all, If any man will come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me."

So, make a daily decision to crucify your flesh and keep your body under. Offer your body as a living sacrifice daily, not just once a week!

1 Corinthians 9:27 King James Version
“But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

“For the Christian in every generation, one cannot live a successful Christian life without sacrifice, self-denial, crucifying the flesh, and taking up his cross daily to follow the Lord Jesus." -Johnson and Pearl

Romans 12:1-2 King James Version
1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

“From my many years of experience I can unhesitatingly say that the cross bears those who bear the cross.” －Sadhu Sundar Singh

“Those who determine not to put self to death will never see the will of God fulfilled in their lives. Those who ought to become the light of the world must necessarily burn and become less and less. By denying self, we are able to win others. 」－Sadhu Sundar Singh

“No Christian can successfully deny self and crucify his flesh without putting prayer first thing every morning.” －Johnson and Pearl

“The flesh will always want more food, money, sex, houses, cars, power, party, accomplishments, pleasure, entertainment, vanity, and loving the world. " －Johnson and Pearl
