    To be honest I think the true sins of the flesh are things that we know are not good for our mind, bodies, and spirit, whether it be through food, music, drink, drugs, alcohol, sex, books.etc.

    Sins of the flesh is when you fail to follow one of God's hygiene laws in Leviticus and allow yourself to become infected with a contagious disease that you would not knowingly spread to the other people living around you. Breaking any one of these disease prevention measures was called "sins of the flesh" by God either through sex or an infectious skin disease or coming in contact with contaminated blood from either animal's or human's. This is still in effect by God today to keep humans disease free for a longer life span on Earth.

    Ths sins of the flesh are like all sin, they are from the devil. Its something we thin we want and desire and devil temps us to do it, sins of the flesh as adultry, homosexuality, things as such that are body is thinking we just have to do, but its not of God. Anything that pulls away from the heart and wlill of God fits . If I want to lie ot tell someone off, thats sins of the flesh. FLesh is the body sepeareted from God by sin.

    So it is simply put when we feel led to do things that arent of God. ITs our natural flesh speaking as tho we dont have the HOly SPirit. Devil calls us to sin, and the Holy Spirit allows us to say NO. If we stay on Gods page, we are protected. When we give in to the sins , we are on the devils protection, not on safe ground as we are seperated from God by sin.

    Obedience still leads to blessing,a nd disobedience still elads to curse.

    i think sins of the flesh refers to what ur body wants but ur soul doesnt .....for example-if ur tired and u give up on somethin which u have promised to urself or god...there ur body says ur tired and u should give up..but ur spirits says that u do it..now there if the flesh wins its a sin...similarly u can relate this to many more situations....

    I believe the Word of God speaks for itself <><

    Romans 13:14 (Whole Chapter)

    But clothe yourself with the Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah), and make no provision for [indulging] the flesh [put a stop to thinking about the evil cravings of your physical nature] to [gratify its] desires (lusts).

    Colossians 2:11 (Whole Chapter)

    In Him also you were circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, but in a [spiritual] circumcision [performed by] Christ by stripping off the body of the flesh (the whole corrupt, carnal nature with its passions and lusts).

    2 Peter 2:10 (Whole Chapter)

    And particularly those who walk after the flesh and indulge in the lust of polluting passion and scorn and despise authority. Presumptuous [and] daring [self-willed and self-loving creatures]! They scoff at and revile dignitaries (glorious ones) without trembling,

    2 Peter 2:18 (Whole Chapter)

    For uttering loud boasts of folly, they beguile and lure with lustful desires of the flesh those who are barely escaping from them who are wrongdoers.

    1 John 2:16 (Whole Chapter)

    For all that is in the world--the lust of the flesh [craving for sensual gratification] and the lust of the eyes [greedy longings of the mind] and the pride of life [assurance in one's own resources or in the stability of earthly things]--these do not come from the Father but are from the world [itself].

    The only thing I'd consider a sin or bad is anything that hurts anyone physically or mentally without provocation.
