* The NFL announces a policy to "STOP HATE" as football players are unleashed against one another!


 

It is amazing how ludicrous these secular organizations and individuals can be in their good works.

A few years ago, a basketball player had his name changed to "World Peace" in an effort to promote peace.  His new name proudly appeared on the back of his jersey.

A few weeks later, this same basketball player was suspended by the NBA for fighting on the basketball court.

Jesus tells us, the church: 

John 6:63  It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

If we try to control flesh by flesh, we will fail.

We succeed by doing the following:

Galatians 5:16   Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

The Spirit takes us in the way of God by reminding us of that way, giving us a choice to follow God.

The flesh and the Spirit are opposite from one another.

So there is a war between our flesh and the Spirit and we learn to choose to walk in God's spirit as we continue to live on this earth.

And there are many opportunities to avoid the way of the flesh.
