Every Heart Is Naturally Vicious

Matt.7:17 So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit.

You can not be sinner and saint! I did not say you would never sin! As long as we are in this corrupt body, we are fighting a battle against temptation and sin and then when we fail, falling on our face in humble repentance. Only the Words of life brought to us by God and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit can change the vicious heart of a sinner. God alone changes the heart!

Heb.12:24 24 and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel. 
Ps.51:10 Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.
Ezekiel 36:26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.
Acts 15:9 He made no distinction between us and them, for he purified their hearts by faith.
Ephesians 2:10 For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
Matt.26:41 Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
2 Corinthians 3:3 You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.

Lord, we trust in You alone for our salvation! Our faith comes from You alone! Create in us a clean heart that serves people in Your name. Teach us so we can teach the world! Amen

Fruit of the Spirit....
Gal.5:22-26
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 
23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. 
24 And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 
25 If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. 
26 Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.


Works of the flesh....
Gal.5:16-21 

16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. 
17 For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you want to do. 
18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 
19 Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, 
20 idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, 
21 envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
