The duel nature theology, ........
Well, if you were in my class, or if i was your Pope or Bishop or Pulpit leader, i would not teach it.
The reason is, its ill defining a Truth.
Its one of those murky not quite wrong, not quite right, Theological ideas.
So, its Sunday, and now let's go to SS Class.
1.) Here is the truth......its a fact that Paul tells us to "reckon" the "old man", dead.
And its a fact that the old man is crucified with Christ.
Its a fact that the born again can "fall from Grace" and back INTO the "flesh"< which is that old man.
So, then.... its a fact that this fallen Adamic "self" is still up and running, which is why Colossians 2tells us that our born again "New Creation", was circumcised from it.
In other words, it it was not still existing, there would be no need for the born again part of us to be separated from it.
2.) So, how do i teach this "duel", idea, so that you are not left staring at me like a Tree full of Owls?
Like this...
Once you are born again, you have now, 2 minds..
You have the original, that is the carnal, the mind of the flesh.... and you have the imputed, that is the "mind of Christ".
So, this is why you can be "double minded", in a way that harms your life.
This is why you can fall from that right mind and not exist in that right mind, as "fallen from Grace".
This is why you can walk in the Spirit, which is the Mind of Christ, or you can exist in the carnal mind, or the mind of the Flesh, that is to "fall from Grace".
3.) Now, if you are trying to protect yourself from deceivers, then you learn what i just taught you, and you apply it to THEM, when they come at you on a Forum.
You just discern if they have the right mind or the carnal mind.
You do it like this..
Jesus, has a mind, and this mind is Truth, so, the way He sees things, is the "right mind".
And that right mind, is what we are to exist in, as "walking in the Spirit".
So, Jesus's mind understands that He is the Savior, He is the Blood Atonement, He is Eternal Life, and His finished work on the Cross is why you are saved and why you stay saved.
4.) So, a darkened MIND that contradicts that, would teach you that your Eternal Life is temporary, your salvation is based on YOUR Effort to keep it, and will tell you that you can Lose your Salvation.
Jesus would never tell you any of that, as that is not the Mind of Christ.
So, someone who is telling you all that, does not have the mind of Christ....They have the carnal mind.
5.) See all that?
That is the "fallen from Grace" wrong mind, and that is always the carnal mind theology of a deceived person who is born again, yet faith corrupted, or its the carnal mind of a Religious person, who is not actually born again, but behaves and sounds as if they are, and they indeed falsely believe they are saved.
