Self-Control
Tim Keller | May 30, 2010
Overview
We all have a problem with self-control. You can’t be circumspect without coming to the end of a day and looking back and saying, “Why did I say that? Why did I follow that impulse?”
The Greek word used here for self-control translates to self-command. It’s a synonym for being free, because if you’re not self-controlled, then you’re out of control. If you’re out of control, then you’re a slave to some other forces.
Paul knew a lot about self-discipline and self-control, and here’s what he tells us: 1) what it is, 2) how it’s born in you, and 3) how it can grow.
