i dont care about mind , will , emotion ... just the spiritual counts ?

It's the indwelling of the Holy Spirit through the Spiritual rebirth from above that helps us to control our mind, will and emotions as we become dead to self and alive in Christ.

Col 3:1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
Col 3:2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
Col 3:3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
 
Just as the nation of Israel was to have been an example of a Godly nation so we are in how we live, to be an example of how to live and to point to Jesus.

What we do and say does not save us, but it does identify us as Christian.
 
Yes Brother you are correct. We have been reborn spiritually inside of us where our spirit resides. Now you have to speand the rest of your days on earth trying to overcome your flesh body, mind, will, and emotions so that your spirit man is dominant within you.

The sin nature still dwells within your flesh. But the Holy Spirit of God dwells within you also now...so it is on! And the flesh don't want to lose so get ready, but you know that already, lol.

Your spirit man must become dominant over the flesh. This is done by feeding your spirit a high intake diet of the word of God. The Holy spirit talks directly to your spirit man, but your carnal mind is not allowed to hear it!. But since you have to feed your spirit, you must also exercise him. We exercise our spirit man by focusing upon the Lord in thought, conversation, praying or giving testimony, askinf for healing, help....anything focused upon the Lord.

That is a hard thing to do while living in the natural. I know this! But I also know that it gets easier.

Ok so now you feed your spirit and excercise him. Not sets of 20 Brother, constant reps which never stop, lol, pray without ceasing. Talk to Him constantly. He is inside of you, He is beside you. He goes before you, He has your back.

The more you let Him go first and exercise your spirit, the more dominant your spirit man will become over your carnal flesh. And eventually your flesh will come into agreement with your spirit man and you'll probably be walking under an open Heaven when they do agree finally.
 
Your spirit man always knows the right thing to do in any given situation because He is in direct communication with God and is righteous in Christ.

I *think* that when our conscience speaks to us that it is our spirit man telling our carnal mind to do the right thing.
So always listen to your conscience Brother and do what he says to do!

So...look upon every situation in life as a spiritual situation. Give it the spiritual eye.

True but that fact surely in no way implies that what we do and what we say is not vitally important. The power of life and death are in the tongue, so we gotta watch our mouth!

*Personally* I believe that what comes out of our mouth has creative power and frames up our future life for us as we go along and continue to speak. What you speak today will manifest tomorrow.
