Spiritual Castration

I believe we have allowed the enemy to SPIRITUALLY CASTRATE us. What does that mean you might ask? Get this, here is the definition of castration and I would like for you to not only think about it in a physical sense but especially in a spiritual sense.

Castration-Removal of the testes. The procedure stops most production of the hormone testosterone (a hormone responsible for MATURITY in males). If done before puberty, it prevents the development of functioning adult sex organs. Castration after sexual maturity makes the sex organs shrink and stop functioning, ending sexual interest and behavior. Livestock and pets are castrated to keep them from reproducing or to create a more docile animal.

In many cases, WE HAVE ALLOWED the enemy to remove something from the body that is helpful in aiding in our maturity and in developing as a body appropriately. And when it is removed, we lose spiritual interest and behavior. And since we lose interest, we don’t reproduce and instead just become docile and paralyzed with mediocrity.

And this castration, this paralysis is best exemplified in Revelation 3:14-20

Luke-warmness, mediocrity, devours the church!
