Thoughts, Drive and Deeds – are they all sin?

Spiritual battle is fought in the mind. We all have bad thoughts from time to time, but my problem is that most teachers of the Christian faith refer to them as sinful, thereby making the disciples feel unnecessarily guilty. However bad these thoughts are, I am only concerned about what considered sin is from the point of the bible.

Jesus in the Garden of Getsename – the will of God and his own

Consider the story of Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane.

Mark 14:35 He went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass away from him. 36 He said, "Abba, Father, all things are possible to you. Please remove this cup from me. However, not what I desire, but what you desire."
