Theophylact of Ohrid, on Rom 8:8
Theophylact of Ohrid · c. 1055–1107
Rom 8:8 · Douay-Rheims
“And they who are in the flesh, cannot please God.”
On this verse:
“Those who have a carnal mindset cannot please God, so long as they remain such; for by "flesh" he did not mean the essence of the flesh, but a coarse, carnal life that makes the whole person fleshly. So also in the Old Testament it was said: "My Spirit shall not be disregarded by men forever, for they are flesh" (Gen. 6:3).”
