Evil Concupiscence

Let us muse again today from Colossians 3:5 and sins to die to. The fourth of the five sins mentioned by Paul is evil concupiscence. This phrase deals with base and evil desires. Let us keep in mind that desires lead to deeds an appetites lead to actions. Let us be careful of satisfying in an unholy way, a God-given appetites. Both desire and appetite begin in the mind. We must purify our mind. We must let this mind be in us which was also in Christ Jesus. There is only one way to have this mind, let the word of Christ dwell in us richly. All of these sins are conquered by reckoning ourselves dead to them and by a strong word relationship with our Bible.
