7 “In any ministry to Christians where the positional facts of identification are not presented as the basis of spiritual development, there will be no true preparation for experiencing the Lord Jesus as one’s life… Most deeper life ministries are being erroneously founded upon the fulness of the Spirit. There are some that rely upon confession and cleansing for this fulness (1 John 1:9). It is taught that if one will faithfully confess and forsake his sins as they occur, he will then be able to maintain a spiritual walk. Important and blessed as this provision is for restoration of fellowship, it was not intended to be a means of growth. This expedient deals only with symptoms, and never was meant to reach the cause: indwelling sin and the self-life.” Part Five: A Guide to Spiritual Growth, Chapter 61, Conditions—Cause or Effect?, p 274 “Now, as long as the believer does not know this dual aspect of his salvation, the best he can do is seek to handle his sins via confession (I John 1:9)—that is, after the damage has been done! This takes care of the penalty of the product but not the source. Is it not time we allowed the Holy Spirit to get at the source and cut off this stream of sins before they are committed? Is this not infinitely better than the wreckage caused by sin, even though confessed? When believers get sick and tired of spinning year after year in a spiritual squirrel cage—sinning, confessing, but then sinning again—they will be ready for God’s answer to the source of sin, which is death to self, brought forth from the completed work of the Cross.” Part One: Principles of Spiritual Growth, Chapter 12, The Cross, pp 50-51
