If you are born again, you are a ministry. The ministry is Christ in you.

It has nothing to do with your carnal nature.

You HAVE a carnal nature, but you ARE the Christ within.

Paul said he does what he doesn’t want to do and doesn’t do what he does want to do. When he does what he doesn’t want to do, he agrees with the Law that it’s good. That means Paul doesn’t do the sin, but sin that dwells within Paul does the sinful acts.

Paul didn’t identify with his carnal nature. And neither should you identify with your carnal nature. You HAVE a carnal nature, but you ARE the Christ within. Your carnal nature is no better than mine. Your carnal nature isn’t sort of bad. It’s evil. It’s wicked. The carnal nature you have can do no righteousness. It can be openly evil or it can be self-righteous, but it can’t please God.

The Spirit of Christ lives in you. He has become part of you. He can do no sin. He only does what’s right and good.
