God created man to be just that Fleshly.The human character was set
by God in creation and it is a natural thing for the flesh to act as it
does.This will is by nature its guidance to live as a living soul.To
say that the will of the human flesh is another will besides that of
God is somewhat of another story.The will of the flesh is that of
spiritual living and Jesus had the fullness of the Godhead within him
and was unable to be anything else than himself as he is GOD manifested
in the Flesh.To eat sleep and act as a human being and to worship God
in spirit and truth is the sole purpose of our flesh.Jesus being the
only begotten of the Father.He that is spiritual is spirit and Jesus
was total spiritual and thus spirit.As God is spirit.To be carnally
minded is to be against God and Jesus was totally in submission to the
spirit within him.God is alone in his glory as not that he doesn't
share it but there is only One GOD and man is thus that man.The flesh
of Jesus had the will of sonship to worship and be flesh which in turn
gave him totally spiritual being.The flesh was one with the spirit by
total submission and ONE will which is GOD alone.God bless and take
care.
