Man is born into sin, and is open rebellion to God as Psalm 53 declares!
Mankind regardless of his opinion of God whether He exist or not, has a debt owed to God, not in financial debt but in moral obedience to Him.
God starts every human being born into Adam’s sin nature, not in a state of innocence as Adam and Eve once were.
If a man continues in the sin until he dies, will be forever separated from the love of God and will pay for his sin in hell.
However, once man is born from the Spirit of God (Jesus pays the debt of sin), as John 3 speaks of a new birth, man now has two natures dwelling inside of him.
An inner battle to please God in obedience and a battle to please his own Adamic sin nature.
That’s the prelude into this song, War of Spirit and Flesh!

and eclectic instrumental records thus far this year on the indie
scene. What makes the ‘One-Girl Symphony’ so interesting is Vandell’s
hand over a vast array of genres. The record style-hops with ridiculous
tact, shifting from classical influences to rock and roll and blues in
seamless movements. Speaking of which, there actually are movements.
Her debut album is broken into four autobiographical sections of three
songs each: Teenage Turbulence, The Formative Years, Return to
Innocence & Hope, and Empty Promises to Broken Hearts.
Anya Marina’s third album, ‘Felony Flats’ is filled with sultry vocals, wry lyrics and hint of innocence.
“It speaks to a lot of things I was going through at the time,” said Marina.
The sassy songwriter made an unexpected move from sunny San Diego to Portland, Oregon where she wrote and recorded the album. Her sound on the LP certainly reflects the change of scenery.
“Felony Flats is my proudest achievement…I love this record so much,\\\\\\\
