Hello to you,
It seems to me most people here who post topics on the board of theology already have some concept about Jesus, and they believe he died, buried and resurrected.
People also have shared many different topics dealing with God and even the Holy Spirit of God.
The flesh that we have wrapped around us, is capable of doing dark and evil acts towards others. You know James talks about how the tongue is a deadly poison, we praise the Lord and we curse men with the same tongue.
Knowing and growing in faith (trusting God and Jesus) in who they are helps our flesh become smaller and smaller, though it is still part of us. By learning and growing in knowing who God is, and who Jesus is, you from being a child of God grow into an Son or Daughter of God the more you decide to build your relationship on God and who he is, and Jesus and who he is and what he had done for the entire world, which many people know about all ready.
The flesh itself can cause to be proud, prideful, greedy, lustful, slanderous, hateful, for the obvious acts of it are founded when Paul wrote to the people of Galatia. Founded in Galatians 5:1-23.
Paul writes about how the Holy Spirit (in which you as a Christian believer can ask God to help you with the Holy Spirit) in Galatians 5:14-23.
The Holy Spirit is the primary way of life for the Christian believer to strive to walk by and after the spirit as it lives inside of you. The Flesh is where you, me, and everyone always will mess up.
Though, God is there by the strength of Christ spirit with in you, to help you overcome your flesh when it rises up against you. For the flesh is an enemy of God, the flesh is weak, but the spirit is willingly.
Individuals have to decide which they rather partake in though we reside with both natures as Christians having the Holy Spirit living in us.
In Christ,
Matthew Gallagher
