Where Sin Begins
"For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds" (2 Corinthians 10:4 nkjv).
If my son were to sin against me, he wouldn't stop being my son. And when we sin against God, we don't cease being His sons and daughters. We are, however, prodigal sons and daughters.
Of course, we like to blame everyone for our sin except ourselves. But we play a role in it. And if you think about the last time you gave in to any sin, you'll realize that it started in your imagination. Then it led to an action.
Paul wrote to the believers in Corinth, "But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ" (2 Corinthians 11:3 nkjv).
He also explained how to win this spiritual battle: "For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ" (2 Corinthians 10:4–5 nkjv). |

Carrie Lowrance |
I love spring. The sun is shining, the grass is green, and everything feels new. We are heading into the season of graduations, weddings, and baptisms. Spring is a beautiful time for baptisms because everything is regenerated, fresh, and renewed. |
