Identify Three Spirits

the spirit of humanism
the spirit of sarx
the spirit of the dark

Humanism
Those who live this dynamic generally choose orderly lives
and dedicate themselves to some cause, The notable among
them are greatly honoured, Humanism's spirit is marked by
nobility, idealism, learning, honesty, candor, loyalty, and
fidelity.  Humanists may believe in a god.but have no relationship
with the living God nor do they put their trust in Him.
 A humanist might
be a dedicated teacher, or a health visitor to a poor area.
They serve others, do not condone injustice;
they are upright decent people.

Sarx.......   fallen human nature.
Those who give themselves to this dynamic in its less harmful moments
are great conformers, conforming to the latest fad, they are the target of
advertising;- have it all,  have it now, get more, indulge yourself, have the best,
top of the range, be one up.
Their less lovely side manifests  lust,  envy,  jealousy,  greed, and  covetousness
all  painted over and all rationalized and justified by social convention.
Those who live in the spirit of sarx ......
live most characteristically for their own pleasure.

The spirit of the dark.
Hatred, revenge,  destructive violence,  maliciousness,  love of the dark,
lying, thirst for power,  and for fierce exhilaration ,  and perversion,
self degredation,  and atrocious behaviour of all kinds,
characterise those who live in this dynamic and are prompted by
the spirit of the dark.
