Out of Body Experience

It's like being on auto pilot, I guess. You know, when you begin the process of doing exactly what you don't want to do, but it seems like your not really doing it. Its like another person or version of yourself that is doing it. And its completely possible that you are sitting there "watching" it all happen. Seems like a neat defense mechanism, however its faulty. We all know that there is no 2nd version of yourself. And we all know that its a lie to make your sin seem less like your own. there is value in this theory, though. It helps you recognize that you are fully aware you are sinning and not being obedient to God. This is a good step! So, how do we stop thinking in terms that another person is acting out and take ownership? We need to seek help very quickly when we recognize our alter ego is kicking in and is taking over our rational thought. Traveling Man Ministry (TMM) can be that help... but you have to ask!
