INTRO: The following are principles to follow to being a strong Christian.
I. SEPERATION FROM SIN. V. 3-10

1. There is no easy. (v. 3)
2. There is no entanglement. (v. 4)
3. There is no exception. (v. 5)
II. STUDY FROM SCRIPTURE. V. 15
As spinach is to Popeye
Telephone booth is to Superman
Batmobile is to Batman
Pain is to the Hulk
Bible is to man -- his source of power.
You become strong in:

3. Selection - (v. 20-22)
4. Speech - (v. 23)
