(KJV.) ROMANS 8:6
(6) For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
CARNALITY VS. SPIRITUALITY?
Grace be unto you! As we already know, the man was created by God, the Father, and out of the dust of the ground, cf. Genesis 2:7; besides his breath of life which runs in the nostril of the man, there are other three things that bear witness to the authenticity of the man; and that is, the spirit, the water, and the blood; these three agree in one. cf. 1 John 5:8; incomprehensibly, the spirit of man, intermeddles with the blood, supported by the water, which purifies the system, nourishing, refreshing the mortal body; without these three necessary aspects of the man, we are nothing but just clay to trample on the ground, if the enemy tries his own illusions to create another version of the man, without the original blueprint, the DNA of God, he cannot duplicate the works of God, but create his own zombies.
The mortal part of the man is his flesh and spirit; though they both need each other to function as a soul, they disagree to agree at all times; the flesh perceives things of the world, desires to have what it sees around him, the spirit, on the other hand, perceives the things which are of the spirit, incorporates them into the flesh; the fleshly aspect of the man has always been carnal, while his spirit though indwelling the body, resides in the realms of the spirits; basically, they both struggle against themselves, either to resist or accept temptations; if we lust after the flesh, chances are we will fall into the temptations, fulfilling the desires of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, to attain the riches of the world, the pride of life. cf. I John 2:16; if we allow the spiritual aspects of our lives, to overpower the fleshly desires, the heart desires are controllable by the spirit, not to indulge in the sinful behaviors of our past lives.
Beloved, what we perceive around us, how we react, matters to the spiritual aspects of our lives if we are carnally minded, we are on the wrong pathways of life which leads to eternal death; it's turnaround time, be spiritually minded to have peace, and eternal life; as we read the scriptures, we strengthen the innermost spirits to overpower the fleshly desires we perceive on daily basis, keeping things under control, walking, dwelling in the righteousness of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior: therefore, let us submit ourselves to Jesus. Resist the devil, and he will flee from us. cf. James 4:7. Continue ye in Love, as Jesus loves you! Peace and Love be unto you! Amen and Amen!
