One spirit


One spirit

 

1 Corinthians 6:17 New English Translation (NET Bible)

17 But the one united with the Lord is one spirit with him.

 

What does it mean to be in one spirit?

How much power would that be?

Would it direct or inherit

to feel helpless ... could that be?

 

How much power has the spirit

if my flesh does not listen?

Can that power from the beginning

form reformation and start with it?

 

If the Spirit is life and the flesh is dead,

there is no use to bring the flesh to life.

The flesh can never be the spirit

but without Him can it survive?
