Bible Question:
Please stop arguing and answer my questions. Is the sin nature a substance or a mindset? Has the sin nature been eradicated and replaced by the new nature? Or does the sin nature remain in the believer and battle against the new nature? Is the sin nature the same thing as the flesh? What is the new nature? Is it God in me or is it a part of me that is a new creation? Is the new nature a substance or a mind set? Blessings, Pam PS Ken, I'm glad you found the Keswick article helpful to you. |
Bible Answer: [Please stop arguing and answer my questions. Is the sin nature a substance or a mindset? Has the sin nature been eradicated and replaced by the new nature? Or does the sin nature remain in the believer and battle against the new nature? Is the sin nature the same thing as the flesh? What is the new nature? Is it God in me or is it a part of me that is a new creation? Is the new nature a substance or a mind set?] Who's arguing? You asked Joe, not me. The Bible says the flesh wars against the Spirit therefore one needs to ask the meaning of the term "flesh". Is the "flesh" you? your soul? Are YOU just someone/something just caught in the middle ....Or are you [us] an autonomous being able to see both [clue here] "natures" when we are born again? Does John 3.3,5 enable us to see both natures as well as the kingdom of God? I think so. What do you think? [PS Ken, I'm glad you found the Keswick article helpful to you.] Yes. I was wondering if there was anybody before me who thought about things as I did. Still can't see how they strayed and went into [What I believe to be] error on somethings. |
