Reaping to eternal life

Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas

SUMMARY: As Christians, we often struggle with doing good and feeling guilty when we fail. This is because our spirit and flesh are in constant competition. Our soul receives information from the world and from God, and our behavior is affected by what we choose to believe. We can choose to obey God and live a spiritual life, even though we live in a body that is exposed to sin. We should command our soul to be governed by the word of God and live in the Spirit. Christ has freed us from our mortal body, and we should live by faith in Him.

Courage, brothers. There is no need to worry too much. If you are a Christian convinced by your faith in Jesus Christ, don't be sorry. Throw guilt aside and allow yourself to be shepherded by the Lord. The same thing happens to all of us. We want to do good, but when the time comes, we exit; we are going into retreat. Guilt surfaces, we feel miserable, and we quietly promise that next time it won't happen. I am a Christian, I am designed to do good. Why did I fail?

The Spirit and the flesh continually compete. In saying goodbye to the Thessalonians, Paul encouraged them: “And may the very God of peace sanctify you completely; and that his whole being, spirit, soul and body, be preserved blameless for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ ”(1 Thes 5.23).
