The word is ψυχικός, 'animal, sensuous,' in opposition to what is 'spiritual.' It is translated 'natural' in 1 Corinthians 2:14; 1 Corinthians 15:44,46 . To be sensual is to be led by the passions of man's flesh: it is placed with 'earthly' and 'devilish' in James 3:15; and is contrasted with having the Holy Spirit in Jude 19 .
