Spirit and Flesh 2 – The Flesh: Perishable and Without Lasting Value

Everything we see with our eyes belongs to the flesh, because with time everything changes, decays, and passes away. No matter how strong something looks, no matter how eternal it seems, it will eventually disappear. The Bible tells us that even this earth is not eternal. Heaven and earth will one day pass away.

Then what about human beings? The Bible says that people are like the grass of the field. Today it blooms beautifully, but after a few days it withers and falls to the ground. Even if someone is young, healthy, and full of life today, time passes and no one escapes aging and fading away. The Bible calls everything that decays and disappears the flesh.

Our lives are the same. The things we hold onto, the things we boast about and rely on, none of them are eternal. Wealth, honor, relationships, and even our own bodies belong to the flesh, and one day they will all come to an end. Things of the flesh may seem to be in our hands for a moment, but we can never hold onto them forever.

What about our love? Today we say we love, but with time that love can turn into hatred, and even close friends can become enemies. Even when love remains, death comes and separates it. Friends, companions, and family may live beautifully together in this world, but one day we must all part.

That is why the Bible clearly declares, “Heaven and earth will pass away, but the word of the LORD will remain forever.” In a changing world, the only thing that does not change is the Word of God. The flesh passes away, but the Word remains. The flesh decays, but the Word gives life.

When we realize this truth, the standard of our lives begins to change. We begin to see clearly what we should hold onto and what we must let go of. A wise life is not a life lived for the flesh, but a life that stands on the eternal Word of God.

  1. How great this message is and so heart touching.
    We as a human being sometimes we thought all things will remain but the Bible is true and it tells us that everything that belongs to the flesh will disappear,the only thing that will remain is the word of God .
    That’s why we should become a wise man who lives based on the word of God not flesh .

    इस संदेश से मैंने यह सीखा कि इस संसार में जो कुछ भी हमें दिखाई देता है, वह सब समय के साथ बदल जाता है। यहाँ तक कि बाइबल भी कहती है कि एक दिन पृथ्वी और स्वर्ग भी समाप्त हो जाएँगे। समय के साथ मनुष्यों का एक-दूसरे पर विश्वास बदल जाता है, प्रेम बदल जाता है और हमारे दोस्त भी बदल जाते हैं। लेकिन केवल एक ही चीज़ है जो कभी नहीं बदलती—वह है परमेश्वर का वचन। परमेश्वर का वचन कल, आज और सदा एक-सा रहता है। इसलिए हम परमेश्वर के वचन को थामे रहें और विश्वास के साथ आगे बढ़ते रहें।

  7. आज मैंने इस संदेश से यह जाना कि समय के साथ सब कुछ बदल जाता है—यहाँ तक कि हमारा विश्वास और प्रेम भी समय के साथ बदल जाते हैं। लेकिन बाइबल कहती है कि केवल प्रभु का वचन ही है जो कभी नहीं बदलता। वह कल, आज और हमेशा एक-सा है। इसलिए हमें परमेश्वर के वचन को थामे रहना चाहिए और आगे बढ़ते रहना चाहिए, क्योंकि परमेश्वर का वचन कभी नहीं बदलता।

    It is true, as bible says that this Earth and heaven and everything which belongs to flesh will pass away one day with the time but the word of God will never pass away same as our faith, love can also change with the time but the word of the Lord will remain forever ♾️ so we must always hold the word of the Lord
