#4667 – Who is Lord?

Good morning people who submit to the will of the Father

Galatians 5:16-17 NIV So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want.

Is eating food wrong?

NO! God created us with the ability to eat; this was part of His design. But He does not want us to give into the desire to excessively eat, and as a result, misuse use His gift of the body (flesh) that He gave us.

Is having sex wrong?

NO! God created us with the ability to have sex; this was part of His design. But He does not want us to give into the desire to have sex outside of marriage, which is between a husband and a wife, and as a result, misuse use His gift of the body (flesh) that He gave us.

We will submit and be ruled by whoever (or whatever) is truly Lord (supreme in authority) in our life; whether it be the desires of the flesh or the leading of the Holy Spirit.

It’s about Lordship.
