Denying Ourselves To Be Free From Sin. Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

Denying Ourselves To Be Free From Sin.

Rating: 2.5


We have an obligation
to deny ourselves.

The truth cannot
live in us unless we freely
and by our own volition
recognize and cast out
the falsity of sin
from our own souls.

So it is an obligation
to deny ourselves
to become free
from the slavery
of temptations.

Our own conscience
teaches us this truth.

The questions arise why we have been given a life with passions and why we are under obligation to deny this passionful life? Was any purpose before the creator when he was creating the life? If there was any purpose what is that?

this denial is renunciation that makes us fight against ourselves.
