The human heart is too fickle for self-led thinking, and our culture's emphasis on individual truth can lead to spiritual war. Paul's teachings in Romans 8 highlight the importance of submitting to the spirit, rather than sin or the flesh, to achieve life and peace. This requires denying oneself and living by God's standard, rather than setting one's own standard. The difference between sin-led and spirit-led thinking is that one seeks to please itself, while the other seeks to please God. Ultimately, sin-led thinking leads to eternal death, while spirit-led thinking leads to eternal life. [... more]
