In the future, that attitude will become all pervasive and true Christians will be seen as the weirdoes to be shunned, criticized, persecuted and ridiculed. How do we feel toward lasciviousness? As I asked in the previous section, are we becoming desensitized to the degeneracy that pervades our society?

Do we find it all humorous? Are we starting to feel more and more tolerant towards it, or are we tortured by it like Lot was? Lot, in other words, was tortured mentally by what he saw in Sodom. Are we tortured by the lewdness that we see in our society? Her attitude was rewarded with a horrible punishment. The future is very bleak for this world, in part because of Lasciviousness. The Day of the Lord--terrible and horrifying-- will come upon this lascivious world with a vengeance. Paul warns us about this in Ephesians.

Now this I affirm and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds; 18 they are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to their hardness of heart; 19 they have become callous and have given themselves up to licentiousness, greedy to practice every kind of uncleanness. We trust God that all he commands and all he forbids are motivated by His love for us and thus we stay away from behaviors that, for certain, would cause havoc n our lives.

We are also grateful to Him for warning us and for giving us the strength we need to resist the temptations that would lead us into self-destructive behaviors. Lastly, we thank God for giving us the undeserved forgiveness, if and when we fall and for His promise that with His power in us we can finally overcome our weaknesses, our carnality, and Satan who continually tries to lure us into evil and harmful actions. This ends the section the Works of the Flesh which relate to sexual immorality.

Are We Living in the End Time? Understanding and Defeating the Works of the Devil. Available in e-book and paperback formats on Amazon. In my last chapter I addressed the sixth fruit of the flesh: Witchcraft, or being involved with the supernatural. It is hatred that daily kills millions in acts of vengeance and it is hatred that led to hundreds of millions of death in devastating wars throughout time. Hatred is a work of the flesh.

Hatred is what drives Satan and his demons. Hatred is what drives the multitudes of the nations.

Hatred is pulling great numbers of families apart. Yet, from the beginning, God made his philosophy clear in regards to hatred: Hatred originates and hides in the heart. God commands that feelings of hatred must not be allowed to enter into our hearts and that they must be driven out, if they are found to be in our hearts. This scripture tells us that hatred can be out in the open or well hidden. Some people hate but act the part and hide their true feelings.

Others act on their hatred by spreading slander. Their hatred is obvious by the venom they spread about others. Today we will take a close look at hatred.

We will first of all look at the causes. Finally we will try to look at ways of addressing strong feelings of resentment that can lead hatred and bitterness. The causes of hated are several. This article will discuss seven. Jealousy and envy can lurk in the innermost parts of our being. No human being can say that they have been free of these feelings. They are there and they can easily surface and cloud our thinking. Envy has been around a long time. Satan may very well have been the first to feel jealousy and envy and to nurture them to the point of hatred. Satan was extremely envious of God and all He stood for and hated Him.

In time he wished Him dead, though it was not possible. He was a murderer from the beginning Satan also wished the first two humans dead and did his best to get them to sin and inherit the death penalty. Envy is a very powerful emotion. Uncontrolled it will lead to resentment and hatred and finally potentially very evil actions.

THE WORKS OF THE FLESH:WITCHCRAFT/SORCERY/SATANISM/DEVIL WORSHIP

Have we ever experienced humiliation? All of us have. It is a painful experience. Some store it away until they finally find the opportunity to get even. Why does Satan hate God now more than at the beginning? In part, because he was humiliated by God before all the angels. Satan was and is a proud being. When he lost the war he was humiliated before all the angels and was cast out and thrown onto the earth. Satan has never forgotten that and is filled with hatred toward God and His children more than ever before. Another example is that of Saul and David. Now what more can he have but the kingdom?

Thus, envy is a force that we must be on guard of. It is a force that must be controlled or it will control us.

Have we ever felt betrayed? Usually when betrayal takes place it is most painful, especially when we are betrayed by someone we trusted, such as a close friend. I have been betrayed a few times by people in whom I invested much energy and time; people whom I respected and trusted. Finding out that I had been wrong and that my sacrifices where being repaid with evil was in some cases very painful.

That realization can , lead to anger and bitterness. One such example is when Saul felt betrayed by own son and almost killed him. Then Saul said to his son Jonathan, "Why hasn't the son of Jesse come to the meal, either yesterday or today? If I have found favor in your eyes, let me get away to see my brothers. Don't I know that you have sided with the son of Jesse to your own shame and to the shame of the mother who bore you? Now send and bring him to me, for he must die! What has he done? Then Jonathan knew that his father intended to kill David.

Have we ever invested much time, energy, trust in a person only to find out that the person was backstabbing us? It has happened many times. Trust is a precious commodity. When we offer our trust we have given another person one of the most precious thing we have.
