*◼As Dog Returns To It's Vomit, So A Fool Repeats His Foolishness-Proverbs 26:11◼*
2 Peter 2:22 says, "As a dog returns to it's vomit, and a washed pig returns to the mud.” Believers are not like politicians who brazenly say what they will never do. Believers are known by their actions, characters, and the fruits they're bearing. It's not enough to claim am a Christian or I belong to this denomination.
I have encountered people who are passionate in their religious and denominational tendencies, yet they're not transformed. Romans 12:2 admonishes us to be transformed by the renewal of our minds, and Ephesians 4:23 instructs us to be renewed in the spirit of our minds. This is key to living a fruitful life that's pleasing to the LORD.
Maturity is not the many years we spent in church pews, or the denomination we belong to. Our fruits must prove our worth. We're a new creation in CHRIST, 2 Corinthians 5:17, so continously going back to our vomit is not growth, it's religious dogmatism clothed in immaturity. We must have the mind which is in CHRIST JESUS, Philippians 2:5. We've the mind of CHRIST, let's live like HIM. Ameeeeeen
*Isaiah 43:18 KJV*
Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.
