It came to me a while back:
There are two powerful motivations or impulses within all human beings. One is the Set-Apart Spirit in the nature of our Creator. The other? The human spirit in the human nature. Two powerful forces opposed to each other. Thus, the paradigm of human kind.
Phew! That explains all my perplexities with the ‘righteous’ amid my world. Among them I lived most of my righteous life. O mine! Am I now saying my life is un-righteous? Well, yes, accordingly to my former understanding of the matter.
