What Scripture says

Deuteronomy places life and death before the hearer and commands a choice. Job shows a person tested through real circumstances while heaven observes. Paul promises that temptation is bounded and accompanied by a way to endure it. Hebrews says Christ shared flesh and blood, and Ephesians describes a spiritual struggle carried out in this physical age.

How I understand it

I understand flesh as a temporary testing condition in which prior memory is withheld and individual responsibility becomes personal. Circumstances may be proportionate to where a soul stood before, but they do not predetermine the result. God can use those already justified for prophetic service while every soul still faces a real opportunity to choose.

What you should examine

Distinguish foreknowledge from coercion, election from superiority, and assigned circumstances from moral blame. Read Job without treating suffering as proof of guilt. Compare passages where God intervenes for a prophetic purpose with the repeated command given to every person to choose.
