Double-minded Man

James 1:8 “ A doubleminded man is unstable in all his ways.”-


The spiritual state of a person is determine by his state of mind. There are essentially 3 states of mind, a carnal mind, double mind, and a spiritual mind. A person who lives and is controlled by a carnal mind has no desire for spiritual things. His 1st thought is only to please himself and consumes himself with fleshly desires. They are humanistic in their philosophy of life, a god unto themselves. A double minded man struggles between the carnal mind and spiritual mind. They desire to do what is right, but they waver in their determination to resist temptation. They fail to hold on to God and faith when they are going through a trail or test.
