The reason for avoiding carnality... A little leaven leavens the whole lump How true indeed, A tiny taste of sugar is enough to induce a frenzy leading to the whole bowl being consumed. It's necessary that in order fulfill our true potential we be not brought down to our knees by temptations and worldly pining. The enemy is very convincing indeed when it comes to he rationalization of such thoughts, but know that such thoughts are folly and will ultimately lead one down the road to perdition. A slippy slope one might say in response. Well, perhaps it is indeed a slippy slope, and when sliding down there is only one way to be delivered from this predicament. And that is through Christ, who is not only the way but the truth and the life. Seek ye first his kingdom and one shall remain on the road to prosperity. Seek first the Lord and the enemy will flea, for the demons also believe and tremble. Stronger is he who is in you than he who is prince of this world. Thank you Lord Jesus.

Whenever one feels their wrath churn one must identify what has elicited this reaction. One then must identify the correct course of action, one that serves to up hold their principal. Recognition of what that principal is a necessary step, if that said principal be of a righteous disposition edifying unto the Lord then one must do all one can to defend that principle. Through the defending of ones principal, one naturally will seek to convince their adversary that their position is the correct one. This is where patience comes into the equation. One must not allow a situation to become a physical ordeal, should such a situation arise seek to establish peace and avoid aggression. Through exhibiting such a quality one will conceivably be demonstrating the very principle that they defend. Furthermore, be aware that the convincing of one's adversary that one's principle is right versus theirs can be a gradual progress. Therefore one should state their belief, defend their belief and most importantly be a perpetual example of one's belief. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Ephesians 6:12
