Inspired Word Of God

The Inspired Word offers encouraging words through God's holy scriptures. It is important to teach God's truth and extend his reach following the doctrine of God that Jesus Christ taught his disciples. - Evangelist Marsha

Luke 10:2 Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.(KJV)

Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

Matthew 28:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

"The Passion"

April 20, 2025 • Marsha Singleton • Season 3 • Episode 50

Galatians 5:24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there.

Passion:

any powerful or compelling emotion or feeling, as love or hate.
strong amorous feeling or desire; love; affection.
strong sexual desire; lust.
an instance or experience of strong love or sexual desire.
a person toward whom one feels strong love or sexual desire.
a strong or extravagant fondness, enthusiasm, or desire for anything:

Another definition is

the sufferings of Christ on the cross, the narrative of Christ's sufferings as recorded in the Gospels.
subsequent to the Last Supper.
the sufferings of a martyr.

Romans 8:9 But you are not controlled by your sinful nature. You are controlled by the Spirit if you have the Spirit of God living in you. (And remember that those who do not have the Spirit of Christ living in them do not belong to him at all.)

Galatians 5:16-17

[16] So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Then you won't be doing what your sinful nature craves.

[17] The sinful nature wants to do evil, which is just the opposite of what the Spirit wants. And the Spirit gives us desires that are the opposite of what the sinful nature desires. These two forces are constantly fighting each other, so you are not free to carry out your good intentions.

Galatians 5:19-21

[19] When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, the results are very clear: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures,

[20] idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division,

[21] envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these. Let me tell you again, as I have before, that anyone living that sort of life will not inherit the Kingdom of God.
