OK so far.

I can't stretch my legs enough to jump to that conclusion.

(All scripture citations below are from RSV)
Rom 7:24-25 ... Who will deliver me from this body of death? ... with
my flesh I serve the law of sin.
Ro 7:18 For I know that nothing good dwells within me, that is, in my
flesh.....
Ga 5:17 For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the
desires of the Spirit are against the flesh; for these are opposed to
each other ....
Ga 5:24 ... the flesh with its passions and desires.
Eph 2:3 ... the passions of our flesh ....
2Pe 2:18 ... licentious passions of the flesh ....
1Jo 2:16 ... the lust of the flesh ... is not of the Father but is of the
world.
Mt 26:41 .. the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."
Mr 14:38 ... the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."
Notice in Eph 2:15 that Jesus created in Himself one new man in
place of two. I bellieve that "the two" is a reference to His Godly
nature and Adam's sinful nature, which, according to Eph 2:15, were both
"in himself."
Eph 2:15 by abolishing in his flesh the law of commandments and
ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man in place of the
two ....
