( Biblical Scripture: Romans 7:18,) ( Ephesians 2:15 )
The Have And Have Not Flesh, The Wealthy And The Poor Flesh, The Educated Flesh, The Uneducated Flesh,
Black Flesh, Brown Flesh, White Flesh, Red Flesh, Yellow Flesh, Multi-Racial Flesh, And All Other Flesh!!!
Awesome and Powerful Holy Spirit, Teach us, In Jesus Name: This teaching talks about the struggle of our fleshly nature. It is up to us to get our body in agreement with The Word and The Holy Spirit, once we become born again.
The word flesh in the Bible is seen often and used various ways. The word flesh is in Hebrew and
in Greek means flesh to me, but you all can look it up.
The most significant use of the word flesh is made by Apostle Paul when he refers to the unregenerate person. He says in Romans 7:14 " I am fleshly." It is not just a part of his being that is fleshly, but his whole being is fleshly. He says" but I am carnal, sold under sin."
" For I know that " in me ( that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not."
Romans 7:18
Apostle Paul uses the term flesh in a variety of ways. Sometimes he simply refers to the physical body in Ephesians 2:15; sometimes he refers to the physical decent in Romans 1:3, 9:3). But in verse 18 the term flesh is used in an ethical sense to refer to a condition of being dominated by sin and sinful pursuits.
As began to study the "flesh", we must remember that in the beginning man was constituted spirit, soul and body. Just as the soul is the site of man’s personality and consciousness, the soul is also connected to the spiritual world through man’s spirit.
The soul must make a decision! The soul must decide whether it is to obey the Spirit and therefore be united with God and His will or will the flesh yields to the body and all the temptations of the material world.
In the beginning, when man fell, the soul resisted the Spirit’s( God is The Spirit ) Authority and became enslaved
to the body and it’s passions. Thus man became fleshly, not Spiritual. In other words, man’s spirit was denied it’s noble position and was reduced to a prisoner of the flesh.
So now that the soul is under the power of the flesh, the Bible designates man as being fleshly or carnal. Whatever is soul has become fleshly. The term flesh is used to designate all that an unregenerate or Born Again person is.
. The soft part of the human body as a distinct form of flesh and bones
The human body
It may signify the totality of mankind
Yet these four meanings are closely related. The first term for "flesh" is applied to the soft part of the body. We know that the human body is composed of flesh, bones, and blood. The flesh is that part of the body through which we sense the world around us. Therefore, a fleshly person is one who follows the world. Beyond simply having flesh, he walks after the sense of his flesh.
The second term for flesh as applied to the human body, broadly speaking, means the body, living or dead. According to the latter part of Romans 7, the sin of the flesh is related to the human body: "I see in my members another law at war with the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin which dwells in my members." verse 23.
The Apostle Paul continues in Chapter 8 by explaining that if We would overcome the flesh We must "put to death the deeds of the body"! And how do we do that? By the Holy Spirit! It is up to you to get your soul and your body in agreement with your regenerated or Born Again Spirit. In this verse, the word flesh is translated from the Greek word Sarx, which indicates not only the psychical flesh ( mental, emotional, soulish ) but the physical flesh as well.
The third term for flesh is applied to the totality of mankind. All men ( includes women ) in this world are born of the flesh; they are therefore fleshly. The Bible views all men to be flesh, there are no exceptions. Every man is controlled by that composite of soul and body called the flesh, following both the sins of the body and the self of his soul. When the Bible speaks of men, it is characteristic of " all flesh".
How does man become flesh? In John 3:6, Jesus said: "That which is born of the flesh is flesh..". Man is flesh and everything we inherit from our parents is flesh. In this particular passage, there is no distinction made as to whether a man is bad, good, clever, useless or cruel. He is just considered FLESH. All with which we are born or developed in us later is life is included in the flesh.
How does man become flesh? " That which is born of the flesh is flesh!" Man does not become fleshly learning to be bad through gradual sinning. Nor does he become fleshly by being greedy to follow the desire of his or her body and mind until they are controlled by the evil passions of their body. Jesus said as soon as a man is born he is fleshly. Man is not determined by his conduct nor by his character. There is Not one human Flesh better than the other it's All the same in God's eyes, and All humans are connected by Adam and Eve, this making us One fleshly earthly family here in this world, and every person came from One blood this also makes us One earthly human family that need to be The Lord Jesus Christ Forgiven, Blood Washed and Holy Spirit Filled to become His Spiritual heavenly family and become God's very own sons and daughters. Amen.
