       Mind Renewal

       What is all this Lordship building up to? You giving him a mind,
       he is in you, he is Lord of you're life and now he needs a mind
       to be able to operate out of you. We are quick to say he is all
       these things but with out your mind he is the mindless Christ in
       you. Well what about the mind of Christ? The mind of Christ has
       to operate out of you using your creation, your mind, your legs,
       your arms, your body to express who he is. Well you say he is
       God and he can do anything! Yes but he cannot live out of you
       without your mind, he needs your mind to see it is him doing the
       living now not you persay. You are dead in him, the old man
       identity is dead as Christ on the cross. When he died you died,
       when he resurrected you resurrected in him. When does all this
       take place? It happened 2000 years ago but now the moment you
       believed it became a reality for you, even if believers do not
       know what happened to them.
       To the father that is what a new creation is! A person with
       Christ in them, that constitutes a new creation. A believer
       needs to know what happened to them so they can give Christ a
       mind that is renewed to him, and the new creation (the two have
       become one) can have Christ expression. I remember some years
       ago it was popular in the arena I was in at the time at the
       start of a meeting to hype up the people and say "God is going
       to show up tonight." Well that kind of hoopla sounds good but
       has no legitimacy what so ever. If you didn't take him into a
       meeting then he wasn't going to just show up. No sir, he is in
       you, not outside and you some how have to summon him down while
       people got their church on. I used to believe the anointing was
       when everyone was excited and jumping up and down or falling,
       the anointing doesn't have anything to do with that. Another
       famous saying was about the anointing "I don't know what it is
       but I know what it ain't." Just cliche words and have no truth
       or real meaning to them.
       You see how easy we can be distracted, I can say that because I
       was easily distracted and thought those that had been in
       Christianity for a while had some deep truth. Very sincere most
       but like the saying goes sincerely wrong. The way Christianity
       was conducted was wrong and deceitful, I will not go into detail
       but I think most that have been in that type of meeting or seen
       them on media outlets will agree, very damaging.
       You mean to say these people have Christ in them? I say if their
       born again they do. I will say that born again folks can act
       just like the world and still be as deceitful as they were when
       in the world. Mind renewal to him is imperative to any kind of
       Christian growth. If you are majoring in any other thing long
       enough you will be deceived. The catch word is "renewed to him"
       we need our minds to know for me to live it is Christ. I don't
       need to imitate or act out Jesus of Nazareth, I need to know the
       Christ that is in me. He cannot live as your creation without
       you, you cannot live as him without him. Mind renewal has to
       happen for real Christianity to be expressed, Christ in you the
       hope of glory is real Christianity. Bless you.
