What is the Gospel

[brightfame52]

So often so many try to carry the effects of the physically dead over to the effects of the spiritually dead.

They both have one thing in common, they dead

When God said do this or that and one does this or that as god commanded, is that an unspiritual act?

If a person is unregenerate person just in nature, God doesnt command him to do a spiritual act. If a person has been born of the Spirit, God commands them to do spiritual acts. Its that simple.

In point of fact, as Paul relates in Romans 7 for a spiritual man to do unspiritual acts is natural for him to do.

Paul as all them who have been born of the Spirit have two natures, one spiritual and one natural. Sometimes one with two natures may perform acts according to one of the two natures. But the unregenerate with just one nature, the flesh, they're limited to just performing acts according to that nature. The regenerate have an advantage spiritually over the unregenrate.

He came out of his mother's womb with a spirit given him by God. Are you so hateful as to think God gave him a spirit dead in sin? I would hope not, but I fear that is your unbiblical religion and sadly an Augustinian false view of God.

Man is born naturally spiritually dead in trespasses and sins and his only hope out of that is to be quickened, made alive Eph 2:1-5

And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;

2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,

5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved)
