The Bible mentions many specific actions and attitudes that are either vices (wrong) or virtues (right).
We all have evil desires and we can't ignore them. In order for us to follow the Holy Spirit's guidance, we must deal with them decisively (crucify them). Those who ignore them or refuse to deal with them reveal that they have not received the gift of the Spirit that leads to a transformed life.
Galatians 5:21 (NIV) says “Those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.”
Review the vices list below and take a personal and frequent inventory. Have you been or are you now being influenced by any of these vices?
