Spiritual Gifts part 201: He bids us fly and gives us wings.

John Farley Thursday, December 8, 2011 Spiritual Gifts Part 201: He bids us fly and gives us wings.here "sin" is the “flesh”, the old sin nature, that organized power or nature, acting through the members of the body, that is anti-God. Our old sin nature is the competitor to the Holy Spirit. When we run the race, the old sin nature does what it can to impede our progress and divert us from the course.
Rom 8:2 Put yourself in the position to let the Spirit war against the flesh. Two of the most powerful areas of temptation are pride and unbelief. God substituted Christ for Adam.
1Co 15:22
Rom 5:8
Col 2:6 God’s plan for our walk after salvation also involves substitution. Lay aside the old… so that we can put on the new. God takes that victorious strategy of the cross and resurrection of Christ and desires to replicate the formula again and again in each of our lives.
Eph 5:18
