In this sermon, Dr. Herbert Ward, Sr. teaches about the dangers of relying on one's feelings, which are tied to the flesh and often oppose the spirit. He shares that feelings can be deceptive because they arise from human imperfection and are influenced by worldly desires, while the spirit seeks truth and connection with God.

Dr. Ward uses Biblical references to illustrate these points, including the transformation of Saul to Paul, who initially persecuted Christians based on his misguided feelings but was later enlightened by God to spread the gospel. He also examines the story of Isaac, highlighting his blindness—both physical and spiritual—as a result of acting on feelings rather than seeking God's guidance.

The sermon warns against making decisions based on emotions or following ancestral practices without discernment, advocating instead for living by the Spirit of God, which provides wisdom and protection. Dr. Ward's overall message is a call to reject flesh-driven impulses and to be inspired by God, ensuring that one’s actions align with spiritual truth rather than fleeting feelings.
