The message argues that there are only two options, and man often tries to add a third. The video draws on key scriptures from John 3:6 and Romans to illustrate that the flesh is weak by design. It is a place where God would reside within man, but its battle cry is "I will be as God". The talk critiques the idea that a worldly-focused life, even with worldly accomplishments, ultimately leads to a meaningless life.* The flesh (sarx) is weak by design and is a receptacle that can be filled with either its own limited power or the power of the Holy Spirit.* God designed man with two choices: to live by his own power or to live the way He designed, with dependence on Him.* The Bible presents two distinct choices for living: that which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the spirit is spirit.* The Holy Spirit is defined as God With Us, or Emmanuel.* Man, through the fall, lost the "living part" of his soul and has since tried to live life by the weakness of the flesh.* The purpose of Jesus's coming was to put the Holy Spirit back into mankind.* The law is not the problem; the flesh is.The video concludes by asserting that the shame we feel about our past actions is a "good, godly shame" that leads us to understand our complete helplessness without God. The speaker challenges listeners to understand that we are not designed to walk through life without God in us. The ultimate takeaway is that the Christian life is about a personal, faith-based relationship with God, where we understand that we were created weak on purpose so that 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.#Sarx #TheFlesh #BiblicalTruth #DrMichaelDavis #Theology #HolySpirit #DependenceOnGod #John3Sarx...
