Read MoreHow to Kill a Zombie
Learn to deal with the undead-dead in your life so that your destiny (and your brains) do not get eaten. The Zombie In recent years there has been emergence of a new player on the landscape of popular culture. It is none other than the Zombie. The idea of zombie-like people actually originated with practicers of voodoo who use drugs, mind control and evil spirits to bring people to a comatose, yet living state. The silver screen helped us make a jump from a living person being dead-like to dead people being alive-like. The Old Man In case you are wondering (or worried), they are fictitious. The permanent place for zombies is in the world of imagination. They do not exist, but they do make a powerful metaphor for something you live with daily. Romans 5:17 says “When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam’s sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned.” This “body of death,” is often called the old man, or the carnal nature describing a propensity or pressure to sin. You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. Ephesians 4:22-24 When we encounter Jesus Christ, our nature is rocked! We are then empowered to die to the old man and put on a new self. We receive a new heart, a new nature. A zombie is a lot like our old man. The bible says it’s dead, but it thinks its alive. What do you get when you have something that is dead but thinks its alive? Something pretty ridiculous. “Braaaaains!” We probably look pretty ridiculous too when jealousy, rivalries, immorality and other works of the flesh rise up to claim the life in us. Paul describes this war that was going on inside him in Romans chapter seven. He said that his spirit was battling in him to do good but that sin was warring inside him to do bad things that he knows he shouldn’t do. So what do we do? How do you finish off this less that smart dead thing that is trying to kill your your walk with God? Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. Colosians 3:5 Three Sure Fire Ways to Kill Zombies and Survive the Invasion Every Time Choose your weapon, aim for the head and know when to run. 1. Choose Your Weapon Like any zombie resistance you must first choose your weapon. And all weapons are not equal. A crowbar is not the same as a bazooka but all weapons are useful. There’s the Starvation Weapon Zombies like to eat. The problem is the more they eat the hungrier they get. That is at...
