Today I found a great quote from puritan William B. Sprague.
Impress the young convert from the very beginning with the conviction that God has called him into His kingdom to struggle with the corruptions of his heart.

Interesting do you have a source for the quote. There is certainly much to be said for the realization that the battle with corruptions of the heart will be a life time struggle.
