Episode Synopsis

Please view the video entitled “Keep My Commandments Summarized” before viewing this teaching: https://youtu.be/k7fUP105dLM?si=hnQbSUUg3t5JUYgVThe Flesh (Sarx): The Fulness of Deity in Christ and the Victory Over False TraditionsIn this continuation of the series on the Greek word **sarx** ("flesh"), the speaker examines the profound meaning of Paul's words in **Colossians 2**, arguing that the modern church has been taken captive by false philosophies, such as **Gnosticism** and **Dispensationalism**, which have created a "toothless, wimp, weak" God. The video refutes the idea that the law was nailed to the cross, asserting instead that the **"certificate of debt"** was the guilty verdict against us. The speaker draws on a word study of the Greek term for "transgressions" to show that it means a fault or error, not simply sin. The message emphasizes that in Christ, "all the fullness of deity dwells in bodily form," and that believers, who are in him, are made complete.**** The modern church has been taken captive by Gnosticism and Dispensationalism, which leads to a false view of God.* In Christ, "all the fullness of deity dwells in bodily form," and believers are made complete in Him.* The "circumcision of Christ" is the removal of the flesh, so believers are no longer required to live the Christian life in their own strength.* The "certificate of debt" that was nailed to the cross was the "guilty" verdict against us, not the law itself.* True faith is a reliance on the working of God, who raised us with Christ through our faith in Him.* God, in Christ, disarmed the rulers and authorities, making a public display of them having triumphed over them.***The video concludes by asserting that the Christian life is about a complete dependence on God, not about trying to be a better person through our own fleshly efforts. The speaker challenges listeners to understand that forgiveness, and the power to live a life of righteousness, is a gift that is released from the fullness of God dwelling within us. The ultimate takeaway is that we were created to be dependent on God, and it is this very dependence that allows His power and His life to be manifested in our mortal flesh, enabling us to live as God intended.#Sarx #TheFlesh #BiblicalTruth #DrMichaelDavis #Theology #Colossians #Gnosticism #DependenceOnGodSarx...

This part of us is mostly seen only in a negative light, because it is so susceptible to being controlled by evil, but yet this is an amazing part of us created by God Himself! And upon creation of it, He declared it as good and beautiful in His sight. Join us as we discover what our Creator was excited about in creating this crucial part of our existence!
