Theologians - Grrrh

Rom 12:16 Be of the same mind toward one another; do not be haughty in mind, but associate with the lowly. Do not be wise in your own estimation.

Grrrh, I don't like theologians. I see no purpose for them, in general, or advantage of them, in specific. I won't point to the one that makes me say this, since I don't want to get personal. But, it seems much of what is changing or evolving in the on-line Christian world is being spurred on by theologians. It's really interesting to see the mental energy put out in some quarters. No life, just mental exercise.

What will be the result? That which is born of the flesh, will be flesh. That born of the Spirit, will be spirit. It is the division of the soul and spirit. It is the battle ground in all of us. Right now, I see many people who don't seem to want to separate the soul from the spirit. In them, the soul is the all-powerful center of activity, the beginning and the end of religion and pursuit of God. The soul will only lead to death. Not death in a physical sense, but death in a deadness sense. Death encompasses us. Fallen man is dead to the things of the Spirit. The soul, the mental power, is part of that fallen nature, and if it is not brought to the Cross of Christ, then what comes out of it is dead to the things of God.

Rom 8:6 For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace,
Rom 8:7 because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so;
