considering this is the music form, and the first post WAS about music, your suggestion is highly unlikely to happen.
Your eisegesis teaches works-righteousness. God's Word teaches otherwise. (Romans 4:2-6; 11:6; Ephesians 2:8,9; Philippians 3:9; Titus 3:5; 2 Timothy 1:9)
In regard to walking after the Spirit and not after the flesh in Romans 8, Paul sets up a CONTRAST between those who live according to the flesh (unbelievers/false brethren) and those who live according to the Spirit (believers). In verses 8-9, Paul clearly states - So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God. 9 But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. See the contrast?
Walking according to the Spirit is descriptive of children of God. Those who are habitually dominated by the sinful nature (unbelievers) put their minds on the things of the sinful nature, but those who are habitually dominated by the Spirit (believers) put their minds on the things of the Spirit. If a person’s intent is to live according to the flesh, it’s an indication that he is not saved. Yet if a person, by the Spirit is putting to death the deeds of the body, it's an indication he is saved.
Romans 8:13 (AMP) - for if you are living according to the [impulses of the] flesh, you are going to die. But if [you are living] by the [power of the Holy] Spirit you are habitually putting to death the sinful deeds of the body, you will [really] live forever.
I know Philippians 4:13. I also know that you teach works-righteousness which explains a lot about your confusion and also about your anti-OSAS derangement syndrome.
You sure like to attack these guys. I think you need a better hobby.
You really enjoy judging and condemning others which also explains a lot. (Luke 6:45)
What spirit is leading you?
You don't know as much as you think you do, bud.

Here is a reminder from the owner of this forum about how the music forum works:
You can share a YouTube video (e.g, Christian music video or Christian song) by simply clicking the Insert icon -- it's just dots (....) beside the smiley icon -- in the editor and select Media, and follow the instructions
this being the case, it is apparently not working at the moment
