Please view the video entitled “Keep My Commandments Summarized” before viewing this teaching: https://youtu.be/k7fUP105dLM?si=hnQbSUUg3t5JUYgVThe Flesh (Sarx), the Law, and the Holy SpiritIn this continuation of the series on the Greek word sarx ("flesh"), the speaker examines the profound relationship between the flesh, the law, and the Holy Spirit. The message uses scripture to explain that the law is spiritual, holy, and just, but the flesh is sold into bondage to sin and is weak. The video refutes the common misconception that being "under grace" means that the law is abolished, arguing instead that the law's purpose is to give us the knowledge of sin and show us our need for a Savior. The speaker also draws on Paul's writings to illustrate how the Holy Spirit empowers believers to fulfill the righteous requirements of the law, a feat that is impossible to achieve in one's own fleshly strength.* The law is spiritual and holy, but the flesh is weak and cannot keep it.* We do not have a law problem; we have a flesh problem.* The flesh is the part of man that was designed to be the "receptacle of God," but is now twisted into selfishness and a desire to be God without God.* The flesh is sold into bondage to sin.* The weakness of the law is not the law itself, but the flesh.* The Holy Spirit empowers believers to fulfill the righteous requirements of the law.The video concludes by asserting that the Christian life is a battle between living by the flesh and living by the Spirit. The speaker challenges listeners to understand that we were created weak on purpose so we would choose to rely on the life of God in us rather than our own fleshly strength. It is only when we are filled with God that we can truly live the life that He intended for us. The ultimate takeaway is that the purpose of the law is to guide us to a life of holiness, which is only possible through a complete and total reliance on the Holy Spirit. This reliance is the true meaning of being "under grace."#Sarx #TheFlesh #BiblicalTruth #DrMichaelDavis #Theology #Romans #LawVsGrace #HolySpiritSarx... The human flesh.
