“A true and faithful Christian does not make holy living an accidental thing. It is his great concern, as the business of the soldier is to fight. The true Christian is a soldier of Christ, and he counts it his bounden duty to fight against the enemies of his soul, the world, the flesh, and the devil.”
— Jonathan Edwards
Simplified Meaning:
A real and loyal Christian makes living a holy life their main focus, just like a soldier's main job is to fight. This Christian sees it as their duty to fight against things that can harm their soul, like bad influences from the world, their own desires, and the devil.
