Derived from the Latin word for flesh (caro<\/em>), it describes living according to base human instincts, physical desires, and earthly impulses rather than being guided by the Spirit of God<\/span><\/strong>.<\/p>\n Here is how carnal is used in scripture:<\/p>\n Ultimately, a carnal state indicates a focus on self, worldly pleasures, and the five physical senses.<\/span><\/strong> Biblical teaching encourages believers to move away from carnality and allow their minds to be transformed by the Spirit.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n {My question is how can you be saved and remain carnal minded and carnal behavior instead of trying to following God’s Will?}<\/p>\n ————–<\/p>\n Source of below: GotQuestions.com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n A person can be carnal and be a Christian<\/span><\/mark>, as a “carnal Christian” refers to a believer who is genuinely saved but struggles with spiritual immaturity and fleshly desires. However, this condition is viewed as a temporary stage of growth, not a permanent lifestyle of unrepentant sin. Genuine faith is expected to produce spiritual growth, fruit, and good works over time. A life continuously marked by habitual, unrepentant sin with absolutely no desire to follow Christ raises serious questions about the authenticity of a person’s faith.\u00a0 Will a true Christian remain carnal? No.<\/p>\n Since eternal security is a fact of Scripture, even the carnal Christian is still saved. Salvation cannot be lost, because salvation is a gift of God that He will not take away (see John 10:28<\/a>; Romans 8:37-39<\/a>; 1 John 5:13<\/a>).<\/span> Even in 1 Corinthians 3:15<\/a><\/span>, the carnal Christian is assured of salvation: \u201cIf anyone\u2019s work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.\u201d The question is not whether a person who claims to be a Christian but lives carnally has lost his salvation, but whether that person was truly saved in the first place (1 John 2:19<\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n Christians who become carnal in their behavior can expect God to lovingly discipline them (Hebrews 12:5-11<\/a>)<\/span> so they can be restored to close fellowship with Him and be trained to obey Him. God\u2019s desire in saving us is that we would progressively grow closer to the image of Christ (Romans 12:1-2<\/a>)<\/span>, becoming increasingly spiritual and decreasingly carnal, a process known as sanctification. Until we are delivered from our sinful flesh, there will be outbreaks of carnality. For a genuine believer in Christ, though, these outbreaks of carnality will be the exception, not the rule.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I found this book helpful, even when it needed clarifications here and there.\u00a0 Also, everyone may occasionally make a mistake.
