Now He who prepared us for this very thing is God, who also has given us the Spirit as a gaurantee. Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is. And do not be drunk with wine, but be filled with the Spirit. A boat without a rudder will never reach the harbour. There are rules to each game.
Rules are there to abide with.
We cannot start kicking the ball in any direction while playing socker. You just cannot empty the cookie jar and not leaving any for others either. Also, promises bring obligations. There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. When you are hot from being in the sun and you are near dying from thirst you better walk to the water tap for a cool drink.
