Probably he meant the second thing, but I was a little
confused.
I also wondered about Neil’s statement: Sexual lust demands physical
expression…
I’m pondering it because we’ve just spent months covering
the fact that once I belong to Christ, because I’m a new being, I have the
power to say no to sin. Maybe he
meant that sexual lust pushes towards physical expression - ? That I would agree with.
Okay, I don’t want to get all hung up on the wording of
today’s entry… It’s caused me to
be reminded of this – I can read about sexual lust and sin and think I’m okay
on that score, but in reality I need to maintain humility and be diligent to
keep my thoughts pure. Nobody
wakes up one day and says, I’m going to commit sexual sin! It happens in small degrees. Today, I’m renewing my resolve, as well
as my humility.
