RE: The Devil Inside - Satan, the Opposer and Adversary Within Us All

in #philosophy7 years ago

Thought provoking for sure. I think you're right to recognize a counter-force inside of us, stirring up fears, creating doubt, voicing negative words... And it seems healthy to give this energy a name, so that it can be illuminated with clarity, whatever it is. And maybe this way we can resist that destructive part of ourselves by recognizing and choosing the more constructive part that is perhaps truer to our nature.

Sort:  

"Resist the devil and the devil will flee from you." Or I wonder if the resistance gives even more energy to the thing we're trying to resist. Any thoughts on that?

Yeah, resist the resistor of truth and good ;)
