1 | What if? | Rom 7:17 | Morant61 | 13196 | ||
Greetings Wdc! Thanks for the response! There isn't any thing wrong with considering new ideas. However, I do think there are two major problems with this one. 1) The New Testament clearly teaches that there is a spiritual aspect to our nature. Mary speaks of her spirit rejoicing in Luke 1:47. 1 Cor. 2:11 speaks of a man's spirit being the only one who knows the thoughts of man. There are others, but there isn't anything in Scripture that speaks of us losing our spirit at the fall. 2) I also think you have misunderstood Rom. 8:3-4. This passage isn't saying that we don't have a spirit. It is simply contrasting two ways of life. Walking by the flesh and walking by the Spirit. In fact, if you look at v. 5, you will see that the Spirit being discussed here is the Holy Spirit, not man's spirit. It is those who do what the Holy Spirit desires who are able to keep the law. Let me know what you think! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
