The flesh, says Paul, is immoral, impure, lustful, jealous, and hateful. In contrast, the Spirit is kind, patient, generous, faithful, gentle. Is this reading telling us that there is something explicitly wrong with our human bodies? Do we have to overcome our skin and bones to focus on the Spirit? But when Paul writes that human flesh “has desires against the Spirit”—what if we thought about the big “S” Spirit and big “B” Body? The movement of God in the world and in our hearts that produces peace, kindness, generosity: that Spirit doesn’t know hatred or abuse, of ourselves or of others. It is not the individual human body that must be overcome: It is all our bodies, our human tendencies, and the society we create together that breed inaccessibility, harm, and injustice. The other option for a second reading for today, from 1 Corinthians, provides the vision of this beloved, Spirit-led community: Differences aren’t just embraced, they’re necessary. Our differences allow us to manifest the different gifts of the spirit. Regardless of gender, religion, country of origin, ethnicity, or ability. Each member of the Body of Christ is different, and crucial. In a time of such intense violence and injustice across the Earth, we each must do our own unique part in exactly the bodies we’re in. Whether you are a student, a parent, an artist, an activist, a religious brother or sister, every individual has a role to play in resisting the lure of power and combatting hatred and greed. CHRISTIAN EDUCATION When the time of Pentecost was at hand, all the disciples were in one place. But then, each was given a unique gift to speak to a specific, diverse audience of the good news. Each of us has flesh that speaks, whether verbally or not, exactly what those God has placed around us most need to hear.
