He was foolish for thinking it was foolishness. But regardless of what you think about my example, God says the natural man finds truth concerning Him foolishness.

The natural man is one living according to the flesh, that is setting his mind for the time being on the things of the flesh, that is with instinct directing his mind. But the unregenerate man also has a spirit, which he may also be living according to, at times. That man is setting his mind for the time being on the things of the spirit, that is according to spiritual perception, with his spirit directing his mind. Romans 8

"For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. 6For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. 8So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God."

It is unbiblical to assume that the unregenerate man is always setting his mind on the the flesh, directed by instinct and therefore, being carnal, so that he can never perceive anything with his spirit directing his mind.

You make a distinction between the natural man and the unregenerate man?

Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.

- Revelation 20:14-15

The second death is the death of the soul.

John 3:16

King James Version

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.


This is specifically speaking of the heart of the father and i believe that others will speak to Jesus and the holy spirit.

All who knew you among the peoples are astonished at you; You have become a horror, And shall be no more forever." ' "

- Ezekiel 28:19

This verse sort of rules out the eternal torment theory, don’t you think?

King James did not translate the KJV of the Bible.

But Westcott and Hort were spiritualists, and they did assemble the Greek text used by most modern Bibles.
