Charles,
I think that's helpful. I think I'd also want to include the Spirit in the chart as well.
I like your suggestion. Are you thinking of the Spirit vs. flesh contrast noted in 3:3 or something else?
Yes, the contrast between flesh and Spirit in 3:3-5. I think that's the heart of this letter.
Thanks Todd. Yes, I think that I could include a category like "operational sphere" and contrast Spirit vs. flesh.
