Evidence of Carnality
for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?
1 Corinthians 3:3
Paul now gives you the signs of carnality: envy, strife and division. These are all works of Satan. They are not evidence of a spiritual person but a carnal person. What is the difference between the world and the carnal person? There is no difference. There is no transformation. There is no change.
How do we become transformed and show evidence of the spiritual man or woman? You have to be full of the Holy Spirit 24/7. You have to die to the flesh every day, sometimes every minute of the day. You have to be read up and prayed up. That is the bottom line.
I know I cannot do it all the time without the help of the Holy Spirit. I can get in the flesh so easy. Then I need to repent before God and really pray. We all fall at times but it cannot be our daily way of living. There has to be a transformation in our lives, as we submit to the Lord and open our hearts to God.
I think people today are spiritually sick. As we draw closer to the Last Days, we are going to see true spirituality and true carnality. We see it today with the economies crashing and natural disasters around the world. What we see is envy, strife and division abounding. What is in your heart? Is there evidence of the Holy Spirit in your life or evidence of Satan?
Regeneration has made our hearts a battle field.
