Set Free in Christ
Should you have that extra piece of coconut cream pie? It’s so tempting! With its perfectly flaked crust, lathered in way too much whipped cream, or is it meringue? It’s calling out to you so sweetly and sensuously. You really shouldn’t, but how can you say no?
“Live by the Spirit and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh” (Galatians 5:16).
What? Are you telling me that if I just rely on the Holy Spirit I won’t go off my diet?
Well, not exactly. The pie embellishment was sort of a metaphor. As humans we are all plagued with inner moral conflicts. We are born with something called a conscience. Informed by moral education and cultural norms, our inner voices more or less try to nag us into being “good.” The influences and instructions that make up our moral fiber can be described as “moral law.” Since it is our human nature to eat the extra piece of pie, our fate is to suffer under a weight of guilt while alternately desiring and not desiring the dessert.
“If you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law” (Galatians 5:18).
There you go mentioning the Holy Spirit again.
