The spirit is all about embodiment. -Dr. Ryan Hansen
S3:E47 EPISODE SUMMARY
Did Paul Think that Flesh Is Evil? with Dr. Ryan Hansen
Paul had some pretty negative thoughts about the “flesh.”
But what did Paul mean by “flesh”?
Did he hate flesh? Or was he talking about something different?
How can the flesh be bad when Genesis 1 tells us that human bodies are good? Or that God became flesh in Jesus?
Join Pastor Adam and Dr. Ryan Hansen as they discuss Paul and the flesh!
