Why is it important to understand our two natures as believers?

Answered in 1 source

Understanding our two natures highlights the ongoing internal conflict and urges reliance on Christ for sanctification.

Every believer grapples with the conflict between the old sinful nature and the new spiritual nature. Romans 7 vividly portrays this experience, illustrating the daily warfare within us, where the flesh battles against the spirit (Galatians 5:17). Recognizing this duality allows believers to understand their struggles with sin and gives assurance that desiring holiness is a mark of the new nature. By acknowledging both natures, believers learn to rely more fully on Christ for their sanctification and deliverance from the presence of sin, reinforcing the vital truth that only Christ can deliver us from sin's condemnation and power (Romans 7:24-25).
