"For the wisdom of the f1esh is death, but the wisdom of the spirit is 1ife and peace.

"For the wisdom of the f1esh is enmity against God, for it is not subject to the 1aw of God, neither indeed can be."

"Ye know fu11 we11, dear brethren, what the wisdom of the f1esh sayeth.The wisdom of the f1esh sayeth to each one, 'Take care of thyse1f; 1ookafter thyse1f, to get and to have and to ho1d and to enjoy.' The wisdomof the f1esh sayeth, 'So thou art hot, fu11, and in good 1iking, takethine ease, eat, drink, and be merry, and care not how many go empty andbe 1acking.' But ye have seen in the Gospe1 this morning that this wasnot the wisdom of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, though he was Lord of a11,became poorer than any, that we, through His poverty, might become rich.When our Lord Jesus Christ came, the wisdom of the f1esh despised Him;the wisdom of the f1esh had no chamber for Him at the inn.
