...It is HUMAN to have emotions--even strong ones. It's more of a hazardous aberration to be without them--certainly psychologically--but also in my experience sociologically and philosophically. I agree totally that having emotions is human, being "emotional" is normal, and in many cases having these emotions is good. However, in some cases, acting on emotions is bad. Feeling grief for the loss of a loved one is good, feeling love for a spouse is good, etc.. However, wanting to "sleep" with a girlfriend your in love with and attracted to is bad. But yet, emotionally, it "feels" like it is the right thing to do; it "feels" right. Letting "emotions" run your spiritual life is wrong, and dangerous. As I think you would agree, Satan can tempt us through our emotions.
"Truth" is truth, whether I "feel" it or not. Pre-Marital sex is wrong, whether I "feel" it or not. Killing a Jew is wrong, whether I "feel" it or not.
IMHO
QUITE SO.
Though I don't know that I'd insist 100% in all cases that FEELING LIKE, WANTING to sleep with a woman you loved but hadn't yet married was 100% evil. I'd be more concerned if you were about to marry a woman and didn't feel like sleeping with her.
AND
SATAN CAN
trick one through "REASONING" as much as through emotions.
You seem to have a bias that emotions are more hazardous, vulnerable to satan and his manipulations than reason.
I think that's a dangerous and simplistic fallacy.
BOTH REASON AND EMOTIONS ARE IN AND OF THEMSELVES FROM MAN'S ADAMIC, SOULISH, FLESHLY NATURE.
ALL must come under The Blood of Jesus and be trained, in subjection to Holy Spirit and often also further refined in a number of fiery furnaces to come out gold.
. . . . to come out mostly reliable.
