Bible Note: Hi, Pastor Glenn... This view is reminiscent of Manichean Dualism. The orthodox view acknowledges the existance and continued influence of the flesh in the life of the believer. However it denies that man consists of two natures. We can choose to avail ourselves of the means of grace, or we can "feed the flesh." (But the former is not feeding some kind of "spirit man" inside us.) This all concerns the topic of sanctification. You can read the Baptist perspective on this topic here: http://www.vor.org/truth/1689/1689bc13.html The study of Biblical anthropology is important. Without an accurate, Biblical view of the nature of man, many errors can, have, and do arise. In Him, Doc |
