The Pneumatomachi were a sect of Christians in the fourth century who denied the deity of the Spirit. “Pneumatomachi” literally means “spirit-fighters.” Perhaps you don’t resist or deny the Spirit’s deity but are instead fighting against his work in your life. Paul calls the Galatian churches, and us, to not provoke one another and not envy one another as evidence of a life that keeps in step with the Spirit—a life that fights against the flesh.
