The Bible tells us there are three kinds of people: The natural man The spiritual man The carnal man

Slide 4

The first 1Cor 2 14 The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit. He does not know Christ and does not have Christ in his life

Slide 5

The first This is the NATURAL MAN

Slide 6

Natural man Does not know Christ Bound for hell

Slide 7

The second 1Cor 2 15 The person with the Spirit makes judgments about all things, but such a person is not subject to merely human judgments, He has Christ in his life

Slide 8

The second This is the SPIRITUAL MAN

Natural manSpiritual man Accepted Christ in his life Christ directed life Holy spirit is with him Bound for heaven

Slide 10

The third 1Cor 3 1 Brothers and sisters, I could not address you as people who live by the Spirit but as people who are still worldlymere infants in Christ. 2 I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready. 3 You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere humans? Has received Christ in his life, but living a defeated life because he trusts on his own efforts to live the Christian life

Slide 11

1John2 and 3 1John 2 3 We know that we have come to know him if we keep his commands. (back)(back) 1John 3 6 No one who lives in him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has either seen him or known him. 7 Dear children, do not let anyone lead you astray. The one who does what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous. 8 The one who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devils work. 9 No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because Gods seed remains in them; they cannot go on sinning, because they have been born of God.

John 3 3 Jesus replied, Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again. 4 How can someone be born when they are old? Nicodemus asked. Surely they cannot enter a second time into their mothers womb to be born! 5 Jesus answered, Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. 6 Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. 7 You should not be surprised at my saying, You must be born again. 8 The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit. back

He is the head over every power and authority. John 14 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever 17 the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you

Page 9A John 7 37 On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. 38 Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them. 39 By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified. back
