I am happlily married with 5 kids. I am an accoutant and worked in an accounting field for over 25 years. I like to make a habit of writing down whenever I have deep thoughts about God (so I won't forget). I really into Reformed Theology that is connected to Presbyterian Church in America.

Carnal and Spiritual

Carnal person is a Christian who still has self on the throne (selfishness). Christ is still in there somewhere, running around, but He is not in charge, and the life is still in chaos. There's no Lordship. For a Spiritual Christian, Self is off the throne (self-less), Christ is on it, and the life is all in order. There's Lordship. The whole idea of Lordship, because those are the people who accepted Jesus as Savior, but not as Lord. The bottom line: Carnality is simply an temporal experience of the Believer who is disobedient to God.
