as Eric Wilson the other fellow, “I will not use

my training in the martial arts to defend

myself ever.” He said, “I will trust in the

power of God.”

A lot of people say, "Well, I'm just doing

it for self-defense.” But notice our text

again, Romans 12:1 and 2: "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

2
reasonable service. 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.” These verses are

dealing with our body and with our mind.
