AE 650 - A Bit At a Time

 AE 650 [60]

. . . a person who is reformed and regenerated
to the extent that the church may be in him
is reformed and regenerated by little and little;
for he is conceived anew, is born, and is educated,
and this is done so far as the evils and their falsities
that are in him from birth and hereditary are removed,
which is not effected in a moment,
but through a considerable course of life.
