Personal wars

I Peter 2:11 “Dear friends, I urge you, as foreigners and exiles, to abstain from sinful desires, which wage war against your soul.” A trap is dangerous and is generally thought of as a means to end the physical life of an animal or a human.  Such traps are usually intentionally set and produce pain.  Peter also writes about another trap which is extremely dangerous.  This trap affects the soul and is deadly.  This trap can easily affect our relationship with our Heavenly Father.  This trap allows our human nature to override our God fearing nature.  Be careful–avoid soul destroying traps.
