Greetings in the name of H.I.M Haile I Selassie I Jah RasTafarI!
Haile Salute to I bredrin and I sistrin!
This is a reasoning based on personal experience.
I and I will trod righteously and upright, feeling good, I and I Irit uplifted through the Most High Jah. This is usually when temptation presents itself before I and I.
The devil tempts I and I when I and I am going good, as if to bring I and I down from the level of I and I Irit, down to the level of the world, to fall into the way of the world, and give into the sinful nature.
Temptation is the tool in which the devil uses to lead I and I astray into the path of sin. I and I am not to the level in which I and I am completely one with Jah in perfect Inity as Selassie I is one with Jah in perfect Inity and I and I resistance is not unbreakable as yet, since I and I am not in perfect Inity; thus I and I give into this temptation every now and again. It is when I and I resistance falls and I and I give into I and I sinful nature that I and I sin.
This sin to I and I is a choice. I and I either chose to give into I and I sinful nature or I and I overcome, and build I and I resistance. However it is easier said than done. Sometimes the devil tempts I and I in a way that the choice to give into the temptation is so appealing; it is at this point I and I must burn more fire, and ask Jah to help I and I to overcome and burn thhe wickedness from inside I and I. However this is not always the case, as some occasions I and I through not being in perfect Inity give into temptation and sin.
Right after I and I sin, I and I know I and I sin, and I and I know that I and I chose wrong by choosing to give in, and I and I know that I resistance has been weakened. It is at this time that the horrible feeling inside I and I hits I, and this is the feeling of the Fire that Jah burns I and I with, for Jah chastise his children.
The more someone sins the more their resistance is weakened, and the more the sin comes as natural. But the more you resist the more sin comes as foreign and the more you notice Jah chastising you.
When I and I sin, I and I know I and I sin, and I and I accept the chastising gladly, I and I burn more fire inside I and I heart, and burn the wickedness from within I and I, ask for forgiveness, and Itinue to trod for complete Inity with I and I Father. I and I must remind Iself that no sin shall enter Zion.
I and I sight the Irit of Jah that dwell inside I and I like this allegory I and I think of.
Inside I and I heart is a fire that is lit by Jah.
Just like all fire it can either grow or die down.
A wood fire grows through feeding it with wood; the more wood you put on it the more the fire blazes.
The fire in I and I heart grows through trodding for Jah, living according to the way and example of Christ and Selassie I Jah RasTafarI; the closer I and I come to being in Inity with Jah the more the fire in I and I heart blazes.
A wood fire dies down through not being fed, or through throwing a bit of water on it.
The fire in I and I heart dies down when I and I am lead astray from the path of righteousness thus not being able to be fed, or through sinning which like the water on the wood fire, makes it die down.
Those who trod a path that is not according to the ways of Jah do things which are against Jah and see nothing wrong with it because their fire is not lit, therefore there is nothing to burn the wickedness from within, thus making sin seem natural.
For these there is no longer a fire to die down, instead, like an outed fire, there is just the hole where the wood was put, and the more and more they do wickedness the deeper that hole becomes, allowing more and more wickedness to be within their heart.
For I and I who trods according to the ways of Christ and Selassie I Jah RasTafarI it is through this fire that I and I am able to overcome temptation and burn wickedness from inside I and I heart, making sin seem more and more foreign.
It is vital for I and I to keep on the path of righteousness for it is by doing so that I and I fire in I and I heart is fed. The more the fire grows the more I and I resistance grows.
When I and I get to the point when I and I am in perfect Inity with Jah this is when the fire in I and I heart will be BLAZING burning all evil out of I and I heart, so that I and I am able to trod Itinually righteous and upright.
Selam!
Blessings and guidance through The Most High!
Itinual praises unto Selasie I Jah RasTafarI, Niguse Negast!
Itinual flow of positive Irations into the heart of I and I, RasTafarI!
Ras I-Tom
