In this episode Phil continues the conversation around the theme of the progressive sanctification of the soul. Two theologies compete for our allegiance. The new perfectionists argue that all we need to do is believe that God has finished the work of sanctification in the soul and we will manifest perfection. Phil unpacks Paul’s theology that reveals an enduring inner conflict between the flesh (the old self-life) and the new life of the indwelling Spirit. Paul taught that the work of the Spirit in our spirit is a finished work whilst the work of the Spirit in our soul is a far from finished work.
