Leave the Flesh Behind! Perhaps, indeed very much so, we must leave behind, in our Christian walk, the passions, lusts, violence and depravity of our own wilful flesh. We must learn to become sanctified servants of the Lord! Romans chapter 8 verse 11 informs us that the born again Christian must be a spiritual person. The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead, dwells in you who are His children. As we have been raised and given new life, by the Holy Spirit recreating our spirit in the likeness of God, we are enabled to live, as spiritual persons, on earth and throughout eternity. Our life has been recreated to live, in Christ, as spiritual beings.

Episode Notes

The Natural Person. We learn about the spiritual condition of all those who have not had their spirits recreated, in the likeness of God, from 1 Corinthians chapter 2 verse 14. These people cannot know God because their spiritual understanding remains in darkness. The things of God remain and are foolishness to them because only those who read and meditate upon and confess God's word, the Holy Bible and seek and obey the wisdom of the Holy Spirit, can truly know the things of God. Everyone who will live in God's presence, in heaven, must be born again by the Holy Spirit.
