NOT AFTER THE FLESH
When we are offended or angry, we need to ask the Father to speak His vision into our hearts. Then we will see the callings of those around us and the order and pattern of Christ the body into which God has placed us. We will see Christ in our brothers and sisters. And we will realize that our brothers and sisters ARE the Christ within them even though our brothers and sisters still HAVE fleshly natures. Henceforth, we don’t know anyone after the flesh. (2 Co. 5:16) As we look into the mirror of God’s perfect law of liberty, we discern Christ the body. (Ja. 1:23) We focus intently on the vision God is showing us and realize that what we say or do to a brother or sister we say or do to Christ.
