Quenching the Flames of Hell

"Who can adequately describe the hell of living in the spirit of lust?  To be driven with a whip but never satisfied… To commit humiliating and degrading acts… To strive with all one’s heart for some experience and then once it has been accomplished, find it empty and unsatisfying… To have one’s thinking become dark, evil, and insane… to hurt loved ones again and again… To find oneself drifting further and further away from God… Anyone who has lived this kind of life knows more about the flames of hell than he may realize. 

Lustful living is hellish living. Again, lust is demanding and never satisfied.  The more one feeds the beast, the more ravenous it becomes. Perhaps the allergic reaction to poison ivy would illustrate the intense craving for immorality some are consumed by.  The body becomes covered with a rash, which incites intense itching.  If the person scratches the infected area, he risks the possibility of making it worse and spreading it to other parts of his body.  If he does not scratch it, he feels as though he might go insane! Yet, even if he grated it with a metal file, a few minutes later it would itch all the more."

How then do we quench this hungering BEAST? Jesus Christ!  The Apostle Paul gives us the one and only solution; when he penned these inspired words of God found in Romans 7:24-25, quoting from the Message:

I've tried everything and nothing helps. I'm at the end of my rope.

Is there no one who can do anything for me? Isn't that the real question?

The answer, thank God, is that Jesus Christ can and does.

He acted to set things right in this life of contradictions

where I want to serve God with all my heart and mind

but am pulled by the influence of sin to do something totally different
