They who follow their earthly nature are earthly-minded, while they who follow the Spirit are spiritually minded.

To be earthly-minded means Death, to be spiritually minded means Life and Peace;

Because to be earthly-minded is to be an enemy to God, for such a mind does not submit to the Law of God, nor indeed can it do so.

And they who are earthly minded cannot please God.

The first man [Adam] is from the earth, earthy [made of dust]; the second Man [Christ, the Lord] is from heaven.

As is the earthly man [the man of dust], so are those who are of earth; and as is the heavenly [Man], so are those who are of heaven.
