Nestorianism (Dual natures)

• Messages sorted by:[ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ]

You ask if I have two natures.  I must respond that I do.  I definitely
have my own spirit and I also definitely have Gods spirit.  My own spirit or
nature is after the flesh.

Jerrod:
	If you have a dual spirit where does the one that craves the fleshly things
come from?  Where does the 2nd part of your spirit go when you die.  Back to
God?  The spirit is life, so when you die, you can't have spirit.  You are
soul.  Your flesh is not a spiritual nature, but *flesh*.  The Soul will
either follow the Spirit or the Flesh.  Fish have their own flesh, birds, etc.
(1 Cor. 15:39) and by that nature they live in their environment and feed
their children, reproduce.  Nature, but not Spirit.  Every seed was given its
own Body(flesh) every human is going to be tempted by something more than
another person.  There is a natural body and a spiritual body (1 cor. 15:44)
The first part of man is earthly(earth) the second is Spirit.  The flesh
Profiteth nothing (John6:63) not talking about a spirit nature of your own.
That which is born of *flesh* is *flesh* that which is born of *spirit* is
*spirit*.  We are born of Flesh, not until we are born again, Holy Ghost, does
the spirit which dwelled in Christ dwell also in us.  Only God can quicken our
spirit to the truth.  The spirit we have is just life for our body.  But a
body without the Holy Ghost is a lost soul b/c it hasn't been quickened.  2
spirits would make us double minded and we would be unstable in all our ways.
