The scripture talks about not choosing eternal death according to the will of the flesh and the evil within. It emphasizes that the body is a gift and both spirit and flesh form the dual nature of man. The evil in the flesh refers to the natural appetites and desires that come with being born into the flesh. The speaker relates the experience of childbirth to the introduction of appetites and the need for delayed gratification. The discussion extends to the importance of teaching children delayed gratification and balancing sensory stimulus to foster a healthy spiritual development.
Dr. Lili De Hoyos Anderson continues to explore agency, stretching our spirit over our flesh, and trusting God amidst our afflictions.
