Deny Themselves and Become Adult

              we understand that human beings are wrapped in the spirit and the soul inhabits the body or flesh. The three components, namely: spirit, soul and body are an important part and parcel of a living human being. We are aware that the struggle against sin, or often called against flesh was understood as a struggle inside the human body, but is it so? Is it true that we have to fight there in the sin that originated in the body? Or could it all is merely a manifestation of sin that has been thriving? Here is the correct understanding of the Word of God, which enables us to understand the revelation contained therein. Psalm of David gives us the answer, actually fighting the sin is in the "soul" of a person.

             Formed the soul of the things that we know as: thoughts, feelings, emotions or the will, imagination, and so forth. Indeed, that is where the battle fields of sin begin, in one's soul. What one does with her body like killing, stealing, adultery, lying, and other sins, it's just a manifestation of sin who are already grown and nurtured in the soul, which in his mind, in his dreams, in his feelings, and so on. That is where the battle fields of sin begin. Learn to fight sin at the beginning of the process of formation, like the way David did: "... I have calmed and quieted my soul." Do not constantly spit and raise the desire of the soul, calm him, even if necessary, leave him at all.

             Desires born of the soul as negative thoughts, dirty, hatred and disappointment, delusion wrong, obscene, stuff it was a place of birth and flourishing of sin. One does not suddenly fall into the sin of infidelity if not first imagine how well, how sweet the wife or husband of others. Ruthless killer does not kill in self-defense, but it all starts from the embryo of sin in the mind, imagination, feelings, and emotions. Therein lies the birth of sin. David learned from his own mistakes, that's why now he can have victory over sin by way of soothing and silence, or not cultivate his own soul desires, even David says his soul like a weaned child, no longer connected, though still close to him.

             How a person treats his soul as "... a weaned child lay near her mother, yes, like a weaned child is my soul within me."? But maintained that the soul is subject specifically. Fed the "mother think is good, not the child likes". The soul began to learn to "eat-foods other than milk", began to be taught to adults, but still in control and continues to be maintained. If we are willing to teach our souls to begin to become adults, like children are out of milk, slowly, thoughts, feelings, emotions, and dreams we'll get used to eating food that is needed even less palatable, not just the easy and delicious. Indeed, such is the way to win over sin, fight and educate our souls true, do not always serve let alone indulge his will.
Have a blessed day. GBU
