Episode notes
Rogue One's Blind Force User
- In Rogue One, a blind character uses his mantra "I am one with the force and the force is with me" to navigate danger.
- This illustrates trusting a power beyond oneself, akin to the biblical concept of walking by the Spirit.
Dependency Over Flesh Power
- Walking by the Spirit means depending on God's power rather than relying on our own flesh and willpower.
- Human effort alone cannot navigate the spiritual challenges we face; only the Spirit empowers true obedience and sanctification.
Faith in the Spirit's Mystery
- Walking by the Spirit involves a posture of humble dependence and trust, even without fully understanding how it works.
- This faith resembles childlike trust and is essential for living out the Christian life effectively.
