Are there carnal Christians? | Rapp Report Daily 0156 | Striving for Eternity

Welcome to The Rapid Bull, daily edition, where we provide a quick biblical interpretations and applications.

This is a ministry of striving for eternity. There are some people who believe that there are two levels of Christianity.

A level of those that are the more spiritual minded Christians and those that are sometimes called cardinal

Christians, as if they are something that are less spiritual. People take this from Corinthians when

Paul refers to the Corinthians as being cardinal. That means that they are fleshly, it means that they are still worldly.

It does not mean that they are a second level of Christian as if there are some who are more spiritual. You will see this in many different sects of Christianity where they will talk about those that are saved and those that either receive a second blessing or become super spiritual in some way where they have reached a second stage of spirituality.

No there is not a level of Christian known as cardinal Christians as if they are less spiritual.

There is just Christians that are obedient and those that are disobedient.

We are all in a stage of growth and maturity in our Christian walk and we are all going to be on different levels compared to each other but the reality is we need to be making sure that we are always on a trajectory that is making us more and more like Christ every day.

That is the goal. So where people start to try to argue that one could be more spiritual than the other, we have to remember that God is going to judge us by the faith that he gives us, not someone else.

So focus on yourself and whether you are living a life that is making you more like Christ every day.
