Watch What You Feed Your Mind

Thoughts are bold, daring, strong and persistent things that can drop down into your spirit and take root.  A healthy mind is one that is open to the light at all points.  A healthy mind is not scholastic or theological, but broadly human.  Therefore, beware of books that contain no "pure mental milk".  The mind needs to be nourished, and the word of GOD; the Bible,  is intended for that purpose.

                               
                       Emerson said,

                         "The cure for false theology is mother-wit".

The idea that we leave our mind behind when we become Christians is blatantly unbiblical.  There is a tendency among Christians to denigrate the use of the mind.

 But in Romans 12: 1-2;

                     God said, "We should be transformed by the renewing of our minds".

And Peter wrote his first and second letter as reminders and to stimulate his readers to wholesome thinking. 2Peter 3:1 and prepare our minds for action. 1Peter 1-13 NIV.  Peter makes us aware that the spiritual battlefield is our minds.  Ungodly thoughts destroy relationships.  They usher in negative thoughts of doubt, despair, deception, depression which all lead to death.

                                     
            "As you think ;so you are".
