Renewing Our Mind

  It is said that most spiritual growth comes from and through unlearning.
 You might say a learning what?   Unlearning everything that the world has taught us which is in conflict with what Jesus says is true. (Including some religion)..
   As we unlearn those lies, we are transformed by the renewing of our mind. As we repent, or renew our mind, we will see that the kingdom of heaven is at hand and withIn.
 Jesus Taught-- Repent, (change your mind)  for the kingdom of heaven is here and within you.
 And what is this renewal? Becoming like a child once again? To see as a child sees with simple faith?
 Above all, what we need to unlearn are the lies that block our vision of who our Father is and who we are as sons and daughters -  remove the clouds that block the light already within us.  Pluck out all the planks of offense that block our vision.
   Renewing the mind is nothing less than wiping out the old operating system of this world and living in a whole new operating system, the one written by Jesus.
 True knowing isn't a function of the brain, as the flash would have us to believe, it is a function of the heart.  The heart is the seat of love or fear. It is where you experience either the Father or the lie that has replaced him.
 Grasping for God with the intellect is often the flesh's tricky way of silencing faith.  In truth, we are saved from darkness, both in this life and the life to come, by grace through faith, not by grace through intellect.
 His way, the opposite of the way of the world, will save us from the storm.
 So let go and trust! And they chains placed on us by flash will fall away...!
