Devarim 9:3

Verse 3. Let the soul, therefore, now fully realize that the Lord Jesus Christ has Himself gone before you through the regeneration; the love of good which proceeds from Him will destroy those principles of evil, and drive them forth from the interiors of the soul; you shall, therefore, yourself be diligent to co-operate and to drive them out completely, and to destroy them, as you have received commandment from the Lord.
