Proverbs of a 37 yr old man
Every inkling of our flesh we are subject to, and its our fallen nature since the fall of man. God in Christ has been breaking down strongholds of sin throughout generations. The desires of the flesh takes what Gods word say's and manipulates it for selfish gain. This a battle every human must face whether to live in the victory of the Cross or in the defeat of man in Eden. For those who trusted in Christ and lived for Him, the flesh will be swallowed up in death. And life in the Spirit will be truly be revealed. The opposite is for those who trusted in the flesh and will have reaped the second death. Think about the life in the Spirit of how it will be in heaven. Every imagination or intent of the thoughts of our hearts will be only good continually. It will be second nature to be holy just as our Heavenly Father is holy. Out of our hearts will come good thoughts, life, purity, truth, and honor to one another. As was the man of dust, so also are those who are of the dust, and as is the man of heaven, so also are those who are of heaven. And just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we will also bear the image of the man of heaven. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Whoever has ears, let them hear. Oh Jesus, let the evil of the wicked come to an end, and may you establish the righteous, you who test the minds and hearts, O righteous God!
