Dear Editor,
To understand life and to establish a good quality life it is important to understand the nature of man or yourself. Most people live and do not understand who they are and why they do the things they do. They do not understand why they love to sin. The nature of man is to sin. To explain it clearly without God or living pleasing to God, man will surely destroy himself. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that you should.
The sinful nature of man will defend sinful acts, that is why a man will defend the sin abortion and call it a woman’s right. Man will defend homosexuality and call it an alternative lifestyle. They will call adultery and fornication a good feeling and a natural part of life. In the past, man was given a choice to be obedient to his Creator God, and he did not. That action of disobedience establish the curse which is called sin and from then on and up to now the curse continues. What is the solution to cure the curse of sin? The solution is the same choice is given to please yourself or to please God. Man is not capable of ruling himself and if he does not accept that he will destroy himself. Your mind or man laws or positive thinking or being put in a good environment cannot change you or save you.
Adam and Eve were in a perfect environment and they disobeyed God and was the curse. The Creator made man for one purpose that is to please the Creator which is God. The more we distance ourselves from our Creator, the more certain it is we will destroy ourselves. Making more laws for man cannot and will not change your nature. The man has to choose for himself to do and be good, and it only can be done by crucifying or denying your feelings and passionately willing to please God your Creator.
Choices have consequences. It is clear now that the nature of man is destructive. The decision to choose good (righteousness) or bad (evil or sin) will have a life-long consequence in your life. Choose wisely. Do not be a fool! No politician can make your life better, only God can. Look at the damage our so-called leaders have done to St. Maarten. Our politician is a clear example and proof of the destructive nature of man.
