"within you" is only 1 part in getting the FAITH into Practise. There are many other Biblical insights that must be taken into consideration.

We all went astray like sheep, we have turned, each one on his way, and the Lord accepted his prayers for the iniquity of all of us.

He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he would not open his mouth; like a lamb to the slaughter he would be brought, and like a ewe that is mute before her shearers, and he would not open his mouth.

From imprisonment and from judgment he is taken, and his generation who shall tell?

For he was cut off from the land of the living; because of the transgression of my people, a plague befell them.

And he gave his grave to the wicked, and to the wealthy with his kinds of death, because he committed no violence, and there was no deceit in his mouth.

One of the rules for everyone is if we don't forgive others their SINS, God will not forgive US OUR SINS. As for SINS, personally I like Archery definition of SIN. SIN is the degree we fall short of hitting the the Perfect Mark of the BULLSEYE!

It still boggles my mind to understand the heights and the depth of the Love of Chris., Enduring the pain and torture in his Human flesh of Crucifixion, he could say, 'Father, forgive them. They don't know what they're doing!' That is True to this very Day!

This is one incident I went through practising the FAITH in my Curriculum Vitae 47 years ago,
