In This series I'd like to talk about two things Scripture encourages us to renew, I'll also try explain why, maybe even add the implications of not renewing.
1. Renewing of the mind
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
To the end that
Philippians 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
The mind(heart) is one very crucial part of a man, Scripture urges us to "Guard it deligently for out of it comes the cares of life".
" Change begins from the mind".
so every Christian once used to conform to this world alright but since you're born again you should not longer conform to the world alright but rather be transformed to person of Christ, this transformation happens only by the renewing of your mind.
Your mind would be purged of all it's constituents (it's believes, knowledge, pleasures etc.)
And as Paul counselled you'll gain in you the very mind of Christ.
The mind which was in Christ Jesus is a mind in total subjection and submission to God.
"I know you have the mind of Christ when I see your submission and subjection to God".
If use KJV rendering of Romans 12:2 you'll that the word used is " Renewing "(Renewing in English language is a present continuous tense) indicative of the fact that The renewing must not end but continually our minds must be renewed.
" The moment you stop renewing your mind you begin to conform to this world ".
