The Flesh and the Spirit – Ken Barnes
So Christ has truly set us free. Now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get tied up again in slavery to the law. (Galatians 5:1 NLT). There is a monumental struggle ensuing that will determine whether we will do things our way or God’s way. One way is through human effort and ingenuity and the other by faith. As was true in the church in Galatia, it is possible to start in the Spirit and yet to end up in the flesh. Why is this engagement so prevalent in our Christian walk? It goes back to the son of the freewoman and the son of the slave, Isaac, and Ishmael. Ishmael, the result of human effort to fulfill God’s promise, persecuted the son of the promise (Galatians 4: 29 NLT). Those who seek to keep the law by nature have to resist those who are born of the Spirit. What was the centerpiece of this argument among the Galatians? It was circumcision. The law-keepers were saying that you can follow Christ but must have the mark of the Jew also. The Apostle Paul knew that Christ plus anything was not Christ at all. Why is works righteousness so enticing to us. The pride in our heart manipulates the flesh. We love to believe, at least in part, that our salvation is because of our goodness. Those who embrace the way of the Cross, have nothing to boast about, except Jesus Christ and him crucified. Are you seeking after the son of the freewoman or the son of the slave? Are you pursuing by faith the circumcision of the heart or that of the flesh? Seek the latter, and you will soon be back under the curse of the law. Ken served as a missionary for many years with Youth with a Mission. Read more of his articles and contact him HERE. |

Radical New Covenant Bible Studies for Radical Freedom in Christ
Jesus poured out His blood for the New Covenant of grace and truth, replacing the Old Covenant letter of the law of Moses. Believers are exclusively under the New Covenant, the last will and testament of Jesus that began after the cross. And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, "This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in My blood. Luke 22:20

Perfect to equip the believer for defending their faith. Ideal to send to a skeptical friend or family member. Great for teens and young adults who have never reviewed the objective evidence for God's existence and identity.
An in-depth study of the factual evidence leads a person to realize how little faith they need to believe, while they gain great faith at the same time.
Running close to 5 stars with over 180 online reviews.
Recent Amazon Review:
"For anyone on the fence, backsliding, or doubtful this book clarifies misunderstandings, perceived contradictions, and outright lies. I was led to read this book at a time when I thought I was over Jesus; but truth defeats lies every time and never forsakes the believer." 2-18-17 |
