When I was a teenager in high school, the Holy Spirit was upon me for several days. I kept reading Romans 6, 7, & 8 over and over again. God was dealing with my flesh. I was struggling with wanting to lean on the flesh and its pleasures. The Lord was dealing with me and communicating with me that the flesh and its appetite and desires was sinful. That week changed my life. The understanding came and I surrendered to the Lord my flesh, stomping on it like Jesus stomped on that snake in the movie The Passion. I started dying daily to the appetites of the flesh. Not too long after that, the whole book of 1 John made perfect sense to me. I understood it all in light of Romans 6, 7, & 8. Peace be with you.
