Subject: What does it mean to kill flesh daily? |
Bible Note: Emmaus: I agree with you. In my previous post I seem to recall writing the following: 'Col. 3:5 (ESV) Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. 'Conclusion: I am not saying there is no longer any need to put to death what is earthly in you. I am merely saying that this is not the meaning of Galatians 5:24 or of 1 Corinthians 15:31, where Paul speaks of literal, physical death.' You have no idea how many times in the last 47 years I've heard these verses in Galatians and 1 Corinthians quoted and misinterpreted to make the point that we die daily to the flesh. Grace to you, Kalos |
