Hebrews 5:14 (King James Version)
But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
When we excepted Jesus as Lord and Savior our Spirit was saved instantaneously, our soul progressively and our body fatalistically. Our soul is made up of our mind, will, and emotions. Here in this passage of scripture is tells us that our senses are exercised to discern both good and evil. This deals with our soul
The mind, will and emotions of man. We must allow God's Word to mature us to the place that we are able to discern good and evil. There is a difference between being good and being godly. Being good is the attempt to please God through our works. But being godly is allowing the character and integrity of Christ to be developed in every area of our life. It's not saying I have done this for so long or I deserve this. We all deserve the best in life, but God has a way to accomplish every goal and vision in our life, we must first allow His Word to develop us so that our senses will be able to discern good and evil.
