SOLD UNDER SIN > DESTINED FOR DESTRUCTION; BOUGHT BY HIS BLOOD > DESTINED FOR SANCTIFICATION
Our attractions and desires may seem natural and thus innocent...yet we need to humble ourselves by having eyes of faith and trusting in the Word of our Savior-King when He says our desires and attractions are broken and fallen.
Praise our Creator, for He is able and very willing to conform us to His image, to redeem our attractions and purify our desires; molding us into who we were always called and meant to be!

"There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death." ~Proverbs 14:12/16:25
"I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish." ~Galatians 5:16-17
"For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin. For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do. If, then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good. But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find. For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice. Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good. For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man. But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members." ~Romans 7:14-23
