Everybody has a past, everybody has been wrong and everybody makes mistakes. The Bible urges that we do more than just recognize our past wrongs; we must take decisive steps to avoid evil. Christ has delivered us from condemnation, but we still risk temporary harm and loss because of our sinful tendencies. Our flesh still inclines us toward error and danger. So we need to remain vigilant in our fights.
This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
Galatians 5:16-17
