CHAPTER

The Chains of Self-Centeredness

This chapter examines the spiritual deadness and enslavement caused by self-centeredness, identifying the world, the devil, and internal desires as key agents of bondage. It draws on biblical insights and theological perspectives to illustrate how self-interest distorts motivations for actions, even those that appear altruistic. Ultimately, it advocates for a shift from ego-driven behavior to selfless service, emphasizing the divine nature of salvation as a gift rather than a reward for personal merit.
