Another thought is that love consumes the flesh. I wonder if I felt God's love it love for God more often if I would be able to get rid of the natural man tendencies in me, like the temptation to rely on myself, or the temptation to be prideful or judge others.
The last is from verse 27: when we give way to temptations, the evil one has place in our hearts, destroys our peace and afflicts our soul. Wow! Pretty awful effects and results from sinning.
