As a new believer, introspection becomes an essential action. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar talk about the difference between unbelievers, who ride their feelings like a wave, and believers, who have a foundation with which to discern their emotions. Emotions and feelings are self-centered and unreliable. This is why Christians have to be careful not to approach the word of God without letting feelings dictate actions. A solid foundation in God\u2019s word prevents being led astray. Understanding your emotions in their proper context is crucial.<\/span><\/p>\n

Today\u2019s culture emphasizes feelings. This has led to a false belief among believers that if you can\u2019t feel God, He isn\u2019t there. The cultural narrative that feelings should be validated, and that others must conform to them, is flawed. The guys contend that emotions are God-given gauges of our heart\u2019s condition and should inform, not control, us. Christians might have irrational fears that don’t align with truth. Being governed by feelings leads to self-prioritization, but as Christians, we are guided by God\u2019s law.<\/span><\/p>\n

Society dictates which feelings are valid, leading to destruction. Only God knows our true selves. The world celebrates all feelings, making heroes out of those who feel they are different from their biological sex, leading to serious consequences. Many young people tragically turn to homosexuality because they\u2019re told to celebrate all feelings. Without God as our truth, we live by lies. Renewing our minds and discerning what is good and perfect is essential. Meditate on God\u2019s word to resist temptation. The guys recognize that men and women are both emotional beings, but they express emotions in different ways. Women are perceived to be more emotional, but we see in Psalms and other places in the Old Testament that men are also expressive of their emotions.<\/span><\/p>\n

For believers struggling with feelings, self-control is a fruit of the Spirit. Christians possess this quality and should examine themselves to grow in sanctification. Don\u2019t feed wrong thoughts and feelings; ignore them. What if you don\u2019t feel like sharing the gospel? The reality of hell should motivate you, and you\u2019ll rejoice in sharing the gospel. Often, we don\u2019t feel like doing profitable things, but the fruit of our labor is worth it. Don\u2019t let feelings dictate actions; use them to identify areas needing submission to the Lord. The guys share stories of pushing past their feelings of hesitation to share the gospel and how the Lord used them in profound ways.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
