Instinct
Jude 10 New English Translation (NET Bible)
10 But these men do not understand the things they slander,
and they are being destroyed by the very things that, like irrational animals,
they instinctively comprehend.
Instinct
“Instinct”, I don’t think of it much ... is it based on self-survival?
“Only of the flesh” I mean ... for surely it is not spiritual
Is it then of Satan ... who tries to survive the natural
as he craves for attention ... for his power is temporal?
When you deny yourself ... let us say if possible
Where then does instinct go ... will it just disappear?
The automatic reflection ... of your hunger to survive
For all flesh we realize ... is possibly based on fear
Not always in reaction ... is your life at stake
So instinct by it self ... must be much broader
May be it is at the core ... of every human being
Before reasoning takes effect ... to be crowned in its own murder
