Thematic Bible: With self-denial
Thematic Bible
War » Figurative » To be carried on » With self-denial
And every one that contends in the games is temperate in all things, they indeed to obtain a perishable crown, we an imperishable. I therefore so run, not as uncertainly, and so strike, not as one who beats the air; but I brow-beat my body, and bring it into subjection, lest having preached to others I should myself be a reprobate.
