“Those who live according to the flesh have their
minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the
Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.”
Romans 5:8
Paul speaks of two different mind sets at work in our
lives.
Which one we have determines whether we are carnal or
spiritual in our responses to life.
Paul does not speak of a ‘generic’ spirituality but
specifically of the Spirit of God.
Many people consider themselves spiritual but are
anything but followers of Christ.
I imagine many New Age proponents consider themselves
spiritual.
A good question to ask might be: “What spirit is
guiding you?”
When Paul spoke of a spiritual man, he was speaking of
those who live in accordance with the Spirit of God and not opposed to Him
through man made theology and denials of the deity of Christ.
What is your mind set on today?
