To understand this book is to understand two concepts. One os the seperated flesh and spirit of Man, and the different character traits of each. The other is to understand the oneness we share in Christ. To view yourself in any other manner is to destroy the works of Christ and make them non-effectual in your life, thus a very ineffectual and confused religious life is what we have left. Christ is big enough and strong enough to hold you, so come as you are in weakness and need.
