**And yet we expect to be rewarded with heavenly honors by him to whom we come against our will! Why then do we pray for the kingdom of heaven to come if this earthly bondage pleases us? What is the point of praying so often for its early arrival if we should rather serve the devil here, than reign with Christ?**

“And yet we expect to be rewarded with heavenly honors by him to whom we come against our will!” That may be one of the most twisted thoughts I’ve read from a Catholic apologist at FR. Is it original with you, or are you quoting someone else?

We pray for deliverance from the World the flesh and the devcil because we are assured by the Word of The Lord that when He transforms us, we will no longer have a sin nature. Won’t that be astonishing?
