Philippians 3:1-4
Authorized (King James) Version


3 Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe. 2 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. 3 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. 4 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more:

The fight of the flesh and the Spirit of God. The doing as told or even called to do and taking credit to the self in haughty attitudes of the flesh or even more guilt. That does not please God or ever has, but Son's the only one that ever pleased God in the flesh, born of woman, not man.
In Hell, is where we are today here on earth, (Earth presently is not God's Kingdom) trying to do what is done by Son for us, the people. The mixing of Law and Grace does not mix, yet it seems it does.
It is like taking a glass and filling it with water and oil, sealing the top and then shaking it up (Going to Church services) and it looks fine and all together. People getting excited and then calm down and sin again, There are those that do not want to sin and so do it anyways. =Then go back to Church and get all excited all over again. thinking they got it, as Paul continues to reveal in Paul 3 to me at least. about the flesh attitudes of look at me, doing it better than others, not good.
Oil (God) and water (Flesh) does not mix
That is why we are to reckon self dead to our first birth of flesh, (Romans 6) and stop patching up the flesh, like taking an old pair of Jeans and putting a new patch on it, then the new patch tears, and the whole gets bigger, it is not repaired only temporarily. '
So to all that go to Church, thank you, love it, yet after that, how well do we the people do, are we under Law to n to do and do it even though do not want to do it, as talked about in Romans 7, ant then to see Romans 8 it is God that has done wash is needed for us to be new and not of us to do it.
Hope this helps you in your walk
