We will continue to study the five aspects of Spirituality which will move you from milk to meat doctrines on Spirituality (Heb.5:13-14).
Every Church Age Believer has a dual nature. He is either carnal (sarkikos) [OSN] or spiritual (pneumatikos) [FHS] at any given moment in Christian way of life [CWL].
These two natures are mutually exclusive and in constant opposition to one another as taught in our lesson text (Gal.5:16-17; 1 Pet.2:11).
Each nature operates in the Christian Way of Life [CWL] under a different internal source by the volitional consent (personal choice) of the believer (Rom.7:14-25).
Carnality and spirituality are temporary, while the Indwelling of The Holy Spirit is permanent (John 14:16-17).
