All life is
a struggle that is the nature of things.
Even within
our physical bodies, doctors tell us, a conflict for supremacy is going on.
The bacteria
in our bloodstream are waging a constant war against alien germs.
The red
corpuscles fight the white corpuscles constantly in an effort to maintain life
within the body.
A battle is
also raging in the spiritual realm. “We fight,” the Bible says, “against the
rulers of the darkness of this world.”
Darkness
hates light.
A dog would
rather dig up a moldy carcass to chew on than to have the finest, cleanest
meal.
They can’t
help it that is their nature.
Men cannot
help that it is their nature to respond to the lewd, the salacious, and the
vile.
They will
have difficulty doing otherwise until they are born again.
And until
they are changed by the power of Christ, they will likely be at enmity against
those who are associated with Christ.
