The Flesh Is Weak

GTM – The Flesh Is Weak

By Tom Fannin - 05/05/2025

Transcript:

In this insightful session, Mr. Fannin delves into the timeless wisdom found in scripture, guiding viewers through the constant spiritual battle between the flesh and the spirit. As we approach the Passover and Days of Unleavened Bread, Tom Fannin reminds us of Jesus Christ's powerful message to His disciples: "Watch and pray so that you do not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."

Drawing from Matthew, Romans, Galatians, and other biblical books, Tom intricately explains the inherent weakness of our human nature and the various "laws" at work within us – the law of sin, God's law, and the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus. He emphasizes the profound understanding God has granted us through His Spirit, enabling us to recognize and combat the internal struggle.

Mr. Fannin also addresses the external adversary, Satan the tempter, explaining how he works through cunning schemes and even through people. Tom passionately encourages listeners to stay humble, draw near to God, and utilize the "homefield advantage" of faith, highlighting the importance of resisting the devil so he will flee. He stresses the need for self-examination, acknowledging our weaknesses, and seeking God's forgiveness, reminding us that God is faithful to provide a way of escape from every temptation. Join Tom Fannin as he inspires us to build God's character and fight the good fight of faith with the help and grace readily available through Jesus Christ.Contact Us: https://www.cbcg.org/contactus.html
