The human spirit (instead of) the religious flesh

Inside of your body are two identities – your human spirit and what the Bible calls your “flesh.”

Christians, those born of the spirit, are called to develop their spirit, and all its capacities that are vital to follow and obey Jesus, and inherit eternal life.

Sadly, the evidence is plain that many mistake the works of their earthly minds (apart from union with God) as the spirit. This we call the “religious flesh,” which mimics or imitates the spirit but which is really the product of the natural mind, the flesh.

The proof of this statement is that those who call themselves Christian bear witness one against the other all day, everyday, on countless points of contention.

But God never contradicts Himself, and desires unity – so if those who say they are following Him cannot find harmony, this is not God’s doing. Neither the Bible nor God’s imparted understanding will lead a Christian to falsehood.

The good news is God’s New Covenant remains for those who want all of God, and to know Jesus Christ. This audio message, while not comprehensive, lays out some points to consider.
