Peace – Overcoming Anxiety
Timothy Keller Sermons Podcast by Gospel in Life
recognize the trio: world, flesh, and devil.
Complex issues such as depression cannot be attributed to a single source but rather stem from the interconnected influences of the world, flesh, and devil. The world shapes perceptions, often through media that creates unrealistic standards of beauty and success, which the flesh then internalizes, leading to harmful behaviors like excessive spending on appearance or eating disorders. Subsequently, the devil exacerbates these struggles by accusing and instilling doubt, attacking one's self-image and faith. This triad operates in tandem, where all three elements influence and reinforce negative feelings. It is crucial to recognize that addressing issues requires understanding this interplay, as solely focusing on one aspect—whether intellectual ideation, legalistic obedience, or superstitious demonization—will fail to capture the complete picture. Ultimately, the trio aims to undermine personal assurance and joy, targeting the core of one's salvation and self-worth.
