The works of the flesh are interchangeable with unfulfilled, broken cycles of self-defeat. "Making us think we are on the side of right because there is no other way- we are forced into the struggle to attain, even handling the things of God such as the Old Covenant; which in their own right point to something different in their fulfillment then what we are striving at through them, and by them."

                Explanation: it can alternate in different feelings, behavior or thinking, but at the root of the issue is a self-plotting course that holds no reverence for Godly consideration. Starting off with short-sighted efforts. A benefit or requirement that finds fault. Both of itself and onto other subjects. After subsequent handling, it progresses into casting further doubt on ability or these efforts in ourselves. In reasoning on processes of fault, taking refuge in places that overpower us.

Identifying these cycles as traps.

             A harmful organization of desires intent on opposition to what Christ completed. Subtle in intent, but on further assessment, becomes a more inward focus offset to that is affecting it. In other expressions, a distorted reasoning takes center stage behind certain reforms, leading to hidden efforts trying to council itself as a false hope. The works of the flesh hide behind lesser grievances that cover for bigger ones not seen. Individuals fail with pain or resist fear as false hope hides behind thinking you can still accomplish something. Scripture details fake passion to learn troves of knowledge because they are learning from a source of pain but remain broken to conquer it. Never reaching the conclusion of the truth of biblical structure is the intent of human knowledge. Never learning human knowledge is incomplete.

The main challenge is out of hand.

We discern the issue at hand, but we won’t stop holding onto it. We can see the trap but still live and think the way it’s altering our mindset while our learning is most stimulated. Through human emotion, taking on pain, driving fear into our solutions, more desperate attempts. Pain-cycles are making experts at not listening to or reverencing scriptural evidence. In part to delusion of reality toward a duration of time that says, “as long as this takes, I will strive in this problem through weakness and inability till it works.”
 As conflict appears, giving us decisions in the dark as to the voice of God in our problem, resulting in our wrong sense of belonging. Striving with God tying to be someone, something or somewhere else as a competition. The works of the flesh are inviting broken reforms of spiritual warfare. A struggle of striving against the identity of Christ.

Learning corrective steps to navigate before they become a system of striving to attain by any means until we get what we demand of God by works of the flesh is to resist anything that claims to be the voice of God.
New Covenant inspiration introduces us to why we need living concepts birthed from God's inner working how God can expose these traps, or cycles, are exposing contradictions.

              These traps alter us to refrain from valid concepts of God, but toward working concepts from our alternative perception. What we refuse to yield to God becomes a solution we hold in these self-defeating cycles. Did we learn the source of pain, or a non-remorse cycle in reverse toward a false conclusion? We resist God’s voice in striving performance as forms of godliness come out of the dark, sourced out of the most out-of-control brokenness we created.

We find our mindset victimology.

A place of uncontrolled shame is the evidence of cycles dominating under those forms. This is a direct basis for a person’s testimony relating to what scripture calls, “The Voice of God.”
 A trap of being ineffective behind the voice of God reveals two question-based evidences: not what the works of the flesh are, but what is the process? It’s a unique process of self-defeat with a defense system with an inconsistent mindset of pain, never coming out of the delusion it created.

 For some, learning the hard way may be a reinforcement- “growing pains are a way to alter the formula to keep trying over past failures in these cycles until it is right.”

• How does the Gospel cover us in these struggles?
• Why do we need redemption?
• Why do we need to belong to a faith completing structure in these struggles?
• How is our faith empowered, so these broken cycles of defeat turn into power and provision through Christ that builds our testimony?

In Galatians 5, the Apostle Paul highlights the concept of the "works of the flesh" - behaviors and actions that stem from our sinful nature and ultimately lead to self-destruction. "However, this concept of succumbing to internal struggles and conflicts is not exclusive to this passage. Similar themes can be observed throughout the epistles, as various characters in both the Old and New Testament grapple with similar internal battles. These struggles, though manifested in different ways and expressed in diverse circumstances, ultimately stem from a common issue: our perception of God and our relationship with His word. The theme of the detrimental effects of succumbing to our broken humanity and the subsequent need for redemption and transformation, is echoed throughout various texts in both the Old and New Testament. Through the examination of various characters and their struggles, we can see that this is a universal human experience.

The underlying thread connecting these diverse illustrations is the fundamental issue of our perception of God and our relationship with Him. Through a deeper understanding of scriptural texts, and utilizing resources such as Bible dictionaries and concordances, we can gain a more comprehensive understanding of the ways in which this theme is manifested and the implications it holds for our own spiritual growth."

It’s not uncommon to read Hebrews, or Jude or Timothy and find all of our findings on the subject all correspond to a thread in the New testament.

• Fallen identity,
• Inconsistency,       (running around, back and forth in between similar struggles hoping for productive results)
• Our misuse or handling of the voice of God,

All involve our accuracy of how we view God in view of our struggles.

Real Gospel Standard helps us view these battles in the correct way they emerge. What is causing them and their affect on our world-view. Some battles are peripherals, while others confirm our findings that relate to contradiction of unbelief to God’s ability and standard! If the works of the flesh are bringing us outside the kingdom of God from our true provision, then our restored concept of the voice of God is bringing us into New Covenant- through the complete image of God behind redemptive provisions regarding pain, shame and blame. If New Covenant answers the struggle we face everyday in our "deep reforms" and "fake passion" to be a better person, leading us to contend with Christ's identity, then finding His Fullness in everything we surrender to God is very much a part of the conflict/brokenness/reform/requirement ratio seen in scripture. Paul just lays it out with evidence more than other places with clarity in Galatians 5, but no means is it omitted, or changed, or redefined. The same circumstances creating debates, or false movements, or delusion are still illustrations, and fractions of the works of the flesh. So the solution as well as provision to these questions are a common thread in new covenant teaching.

"You can't separate grace from the cross, nor the cross from grace- its the same work, audience: the same key of power, promise of faith and complete work of God! A provision of grace is the reminder of the fulfillment gained at the cross. There is no similar, side-provision of grace in addition to the cross! Christ told Paul this grace is sufficient in your season of testing!

Either someone’s thought process, or approach to presence of God is creating a co-dependency of their own will collapsing under the weight of burden, or they wake up to the opposition it’s creating against God’s complete provision!
We miss Christ in our unbelief or express the Gospel foundation in our confidence!

Paul is not referring to the works of the flesh as a hopeless battle, but a call to confidence over the battle! If we know the source of failure is denial of what God committed to us in the big picture, we cease to stop living in contradiction to areas of Christ's ability fulfilled over the Law. Once again, our response to the voice of God will be the conclusion we come to reverence in our accuracy, completion, and testimony in Christ.
