RE: Importance of joy to a believer
I think this is very important as an issue and I feel the personal significance of it. It has changed what Christian life looks like to me. It means sanctification has a rationale to it that it didn’t before to me. So we need to pursue our happiness in Jesus, and I want to use that word pursue. This is something we can’t simply sit back on. Paul in Philippians 3:14 uses strong, striving language. I press on towards the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. It is an active thing. He wants to press in to know them.
