Walk in the Spirit. What does that mean and how do we do it?

Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth - A podcast by Dr. Paul Felter

Greetings, I'm Dr. Paul Felter. Welcome to my video podcast, where I expose church fallacies and flawed Christian traditions with Bible truth. I let the Bible speak for itself. Please visit my website for additional resources including my book “The Master Key to Understanding the Bible,” a comprehensive guide to rightly dividing the word of truth.The Flesh and the SpiritIn this video, I will answer the previous questions by explaining walking in the Spirit and how to do it.Let’s begin with a popular verse from Romans chapter 8."There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." - Romans 8:1 KJVChristians live their daily lives in one of two modes. Either we gratify the desires of the flesh or follow the leading of the Holy Spirit. To walk simply means to live, referring to our daily lifestyle, the things we do day in and day out. We walk indulging the desires of the flesh or after the desires of the Spirit. Those are the only two options. Every Christian does one or the other. But there's another aspect in the above passage, one of condemnation. The Christian who lives in the spirit suffers no condemnation. But the reciprocal is true for the Christian who lives gratifying the flesh. They will suffer condemnation at the judgment seat of Christ with loss of reward, more on that later. Please understand something right from the beginning. The passages I cover in this study speak to Christians. They do not contrast Christians with the ungodly lost. But contrast spiritual Christians with carnal Christians, Christians that operate in the flesh as babes in Christ.  Paul spoke the following to the Corinthian believers:"And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ." - 1 Corinthians 3:1 KJVCarnal Christians concern themselves with fleshly desires. They continually seek sensual things gratifying their five senses and appetites. Yielding to the three primary sources of lust: the lust of the eye, the lust of the flesh, and the pride of life, carnal Christians succumb to the seduction of evil. Condemnation from the Lord awaits them at the judgment seat of Christ. Spiritual Christians follow the Spirit and word of God. Spiritual blessings and rewards await them at the judgment seat of Christ.Let’s create a list of characteristics of the flesh contrasted with characteristics of the spirit based on several Bible passages beginning with what we read from Romans 8:1 BreadofLife.media
