Spirit Man & Flesh Man, both are Men....deno....share freely.
......Paul said that as Christians who are born of God, the spirit lusteth against the flesh and the flesh lusteth against the spirit. James said, the body without the spirit in it is dead. There is therefore our physical man and there also exist our spirit man. When the body man dies the spirit man lives on...As believers we need to recognize and know the difference between the TWO MEN..
.......When Jesus said unless A MAN be born again he cannot enter into the kingdom of heaven he was referring to our spirit man not our physical man. Jesus also said, My words are about the spirit, the flesh does not profit from them.
.......When a persons spirit is BORN AGAIN that persons spirit truly is a NEW CREATURE.. Nothing in our spirit man that is born again is old, IT IS ALL NEW. Old things are passed away. Behold ALL THINGS are become NEW. You cannot say those things about your flesh man, they only fit your New Spirit Man born of God by faith in Jesus Christ.
........We need to know that in Christ Jesus our inward man, the one that lives on and leaves the body when the body dies, that man is a NEW MAN and our NEW MAN does not mix well with the sinful nature of our flesh man. Their desires oppose each other. They are now two different natures of two different men. Flesh man vs spirit man. They are contrary to each other even as light is from darkness and good is from evil. Even as Gods Holy Spirit is contrary to Satan's evil spirit. They do not mix and mingle and they sure are not best friends, nor do they walk hand in hand.
.......The spirit that is born of God is holy after the IMAGE of its new Father. The Holy Spirit begets holy spirits, not evil spirits (THAT'S IMPORTANT...SO IMPORTANT).
.......So if any man be in Christ Jesus he is a NEW CREATURE..A HOLY CREATURE. HE IS A NEW SPIRIT and that spirit is holy in nature for no man born of God and born of His Seed which is Christ can be born an evil spirit from that HOLY SEED. That thing which is born in you is born holy. He is created in Christ Jesus in righteousness and true holiness after the image of HIM THAT CREATED HIM...Ephesians 4:23-24)..
......The problem and yes there is this common problem for all of us. The problem has been and is, he THIS NEW MAN, THIS NEW HOLY SPIRIT born of God is surrounded by a wall of sinful flesh full of selfish sinful cravings. A flesh that of itself has no good thing dwelling in its members. Plus his upstairs mind has been trained to think evil upon evil and sin upon sin...Therefore our minds must be renewed and our sinful flesh disciplined by the will of the holiness of the NEW SPIRIT that is holy. As born again holy spirits with the help of the Holy Ghost who is our spirits HEAVENLY FATHER, with His help we must discipline our sinful flesh as like dealing with an unruly child..We thru the spirit must learn to put to death or to not give into the deeds the sinful body wants...
.......Like Paul said, Learn to walk in the spirit so that you do not fulfill the lust of the flesh...If the spirit was unholy Paul would never have told us to WALK IN IT or BY IT...OUR HEAVENLY FATHER is holy and our heavenly man born of God is holy...Your new born again spirit is holy by nature in the Lord.....deno.
