And every man that strives for self control is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
All Commentaries on 1 Corinthians 9:25 Go To 1 Corinthians 9
Augustine of Hippo
AD 430
When we enter upon the way of the Lord, let us fast from the vanity of this present life and refresh ourselves with the hope of the future life, not focusing our heart on things here but feasting it on things above.
