Romans 8: 1 - 8 '...for to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace...' This portion of scripture deals with 2 great entities...the flesh, and the spirit. These are constantly at war within us all the time. What's interesting is that God doesn't really give us a third or fourth option! He tells us plainly that we are either in the camp of one or the other. What I've come to realize is the bedrock of this text has a lot to do about value systems. What we hold dear to our hearts is usually the champion of our personality and character going forward. There are several things to consider on this vein of thinking. First of all, in a retail store or anything of that sort, you have various items, but the materials inside do not hold or share the same value; some things are more expensive than others...I can only surmise that the pricing is different because the importance of said item is also different...or, more valuable.
