Stop Saying Your Battle Is Against Your Flesh; It's Not! (Gal. 5)

Systematic theology has wrongly described Galatians 5 as a battle between a Christian's flesh and spirit (or flesh and Spirit). That is not the point. In fact, it fights against the point Paul is making, and it undermine's the freedom Christ died to give us. Think of Galatians 5:17: "the Spirit and the flesh are in opposition to one another." You probably think that verse describes a battle within the believer. It doesn't! In this study, I'll show you.
