Good Morning!
We could spend the rest of our lives trying to figure out why we seem to have two natures. One part of us wants to do good, while another part of us seems to do things we don’t want to do.
The conflict of two natures was brought up by Paul, and he did a pretty good job of explaining it in Romans Chapter 7 and 8. He basically admits that he doesn’t always do the good that he wants to do, but that he agrees with God and God’s laws in his (inner man) mind. The problem is the body or flesh has a mind of its own and wages war against the mind.
Paul (as we should) thanks Jesus Christ our Lord for helping him overcome this flesh by his Spirit. For we should walk by this Spirit instead of the flesh.
Paul concludes that the mindset of the flesh is death, but the mindset of the Spirit is life and peace.
My prayer for everyone is for us to choose life and peace.
