Scripture Post #50: *FLESH UNPLEASABLE*

Romans 8:
8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

Note: [This Scripture was from Paul, a servant & Apostle of Christ, to all that were in Rome: Rom. 1:1 & 7] 

Folks say things like this a lot: "Oh, well, uh, I was in the flesh." Or: "Child, that's just my flesh cuttin' up again; don't mind me." 
But you don't have to live in the flesh; the flesh has to live in you: 
Romans 7:
17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing…
1st John 1:8: "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us."
Romans 8:9: "…Ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit…"
