The Divided Life

December 10, 2008

First, there is the natural life that we were born into. Then, there is the spiritual life that can be obtained only through obedience to God’s commands. The spiritual life is foolishness to the natural man because he is not spiritually discerned. We are not saved by obedience, however, but through the cross of Jesus Christ. So then why the obedient life? It is because God can not work through you if you do not or cannot obey him. Whenever someone believes in Jesus, but does not sacrifice his own self, the result is a divided life and that life cannot prosper apart from discipline and obedience.
