Observation: –
Our physical flesh is not sinful. Our carnal man are those attitudes that over time became our personality over against the word of God. This is something that is different from our physical body. It is something that can be removed without dehumanizing us. The Bible tells us Jesus was born \”without sin.\”
Application
The evidence of carnality is reflected in envying, strife and divisions among brethren. It is certainly true that people who are spiritually mature handle conflict in more Christ-like manners than immature and carnal-minded Christians do. A pastor whose church is plagued with carnality will feel the burden of the increased disharmony and a lack of spiritual and numerical growth.
