Thematic Bible: With self-denial
Thematic Bible
War » Figurative » To be carried on » With self-denial
And every one who contendeth in the games is temperate in all things; they, however, to obtain a perishable crown, but we, an imperishable. I therefore so run, not as one uncertain; I so fight, not as one striking the air; but I beat down my body, and bring it into subjection, lest perhaps, when I have been a herald to others, I should myself be rejected as unworthy.
