Q10: How do we remove our self-indulgence ? To discern to voice in our conscience as to the source of strong authority (Jesus, Satan or ourselves in our conscience) we must daily test our religion, by the fruit it produces. Fruit is the only method in Scripture to discern character. Ga 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith...
People are tested by their fruit.. Self indulgent people are generally selfish,
and produce no good fruit or make leaves. Leaves are symbols of self-powered
self righteousness.
God makes us bear fruits unto Him through tribulation, for only tribulation
makes fruit trees and grains and vegetables make fruit. Some trials are stronger
and harder than others, but we have to trust Him who lovingly does
what is best for us. Shalom
