* How do you put to death the sins of our flesh?

* By STARVING them!

* We refuse to feed them.

* This means when the temptation comes we replace the lie behind it with the truth of God’s Word.

* This takes place in the mind.

* When we refuse to give attention in our mind to the temptation it will starve to death.

* The command to “have nothing to do with sexual immorality, etc” goes two ways:

* 1) The person lusting - in a typical scenario this would be the guy lusting after the girl.

* He’s got to control this by starving that temptation.

* 2) The one being lusted after - a girl needs to make sure she’s not dressed or behaving in a way that would cause a boy to lust.

* She’s got to starve that temptation!
