Romans 12:2
2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that
you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
Transformed - to change into another form, to transform, to transfigure,
Christ appearance was changed and was resplendent with divine brightness on the mount of
transfiguration.
So where does our transformation start?
Romans 8:5
5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those
who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
Learning the Word of God changes the way you think so that your life can change.
A life change by the Spirit comes from a mind led by the Spirit.
1 Peter 1:13-14
13 Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace
that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
14 as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts, as in your ignorance;
Gird up - buckle up your belt,
loins - the hip, fruit of the loins, offspring, procreative power,
Mind - the mind as a faculty of understanding, feeling, desiring, Spirit or flesh.
The seeds that grow in your mind will produce a good or evil offspring.
Our mind does not have the capability of two thoughts at the same time so choose wisely!
Sober - Keep your thoughts together, don’t let your mind run rampant.
Double minded - divided in interest, wavering between God and the world.
Ignorance - of moral blindness, lack of knowledge of divine things, in the flesh.
Because you got filled with the Holy Spirit you now have a choice.
Is there evidence of the Holy Spirit in you and out of you?
