Unless
you sacrifice your self for the sake of the slightest virtue or shed
blood in order to receive the Spirit, you’ll never achieve virtue. This
is how God arranged things, with his providential power: that we should
gain eternal life through our voluntary death.
Unless you die voluntarily, you’ll never achieve eternal life and you’ll become moribund.
Those who don’t die a perfect death, by cutting off their own will, won’t enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
