THE CHILI FACTOR: Kan versus seen

Ola all of you chili lovers. I love chili. I love the smell...the taste...the variety...hot...mild... con...sin...I LOVE CHILI. I have sweet childhood memories of every other Wednesday night in the Boyd household. That would be the day that my Dad would get paid. The check would get cashed...and we would head off to the store and buy groceries. Once we returned home... Mom would put on a pot of coffee to brew...and then shou would open a CAN of chili con carne...and open up a can of tamales...and heat them up on the stove. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm....the combination of smells of chili and coffee still stimulate my #1 Cranial Nerve...the Olfactory Nerve. Even to this day...that smell still evokes memories of "the good times" in our household. There are two camp of chili lovers. Camp #1 loves chili CON carne (chili with flesh/meat). See the bowl of chili above. Camp # 2 loves chili SIN carne (without flesh/meat). Chili wise...I fall in the con (khan) camp...Spiritual wise...I must go with the sin (seen) camp.

There are two types of Chrisitan camps. Christian CON (khan)CARNE....and Christian SIN (seen) CARNE. The FLESH (sarx) is defined as:

Sarx: flesh as stripped of the skin, that is, the meat of the animal (as food) or by extension the body, as opposed to the soul/spirit, or as the symbol of what is external, or as the means of kindred, or by implication HUMAN NATURE WITH IT'S FRAILTIES...physically or morally and passions. Specifically, a human being. (E-SWORD).

The struggle between the human spirit...and the soul...is where the battle of the flesh occurs. When the soul with it's mind (renewed or unrenewed), it's free will, and it's emotions...comes into conflict with the human spirit...where the Holy Spirit resides....there is struggle and opposition. What to do...what to d0!?!
