the spirit of your mind.


Do you know that you have 2 different minds?

"  That you put off concerning the former conversations the old person, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; and be renewed in the spirit of your mind. "  
 Ephesians 4:22, 23

You have a natural mind and a spiritual mind {which is the mind (thoughts like) of Christ in you Born-Again spirit!.   ** Spiritual Wisdom
15 The spiritual man judges all things, but he himself is not subject to anyone’s judgment.
16“For who has known the mind of the Lord, so as to instruct Him?”
  But we have the mind of Christ.

Life For Today Study Bible Notes
Note 6 at 1 Corinthians 2:16:
What an awesome statement! We haven’t just had a portion of Christ’s wisdom transferred to us; we have the mind of Christ! We know everything that Jesus knows!

Some people can’t believe this. Their school grades prove that they don’t have the mind of Christ, so what’s right–their experience or what God says?
In this case, both are correct.

Our physical brains are limited and certainly do not know everything. There are many scriptures that make this point (e.g., 1 Corinthians 13:9-12), including the very context of Paul’s statement here.

But in our new born-again spirits, we are completely new creatures (2 Corinthians 5:17). We actually have the mind of Christ. Our born-again spirits have been renewed in knowledge after the same image of Him that created us (Colossians 3:10).
We have received an anointing in our spirit so that we know all things (1 John 2:20). Praise God!

So the spiritual portion of us as Christians has the mind of Christ, while our physical brains do not. This is why the renewing of our physical minds is so important (see note 9 at Romans 12:2). We already have the perfect wisdom of Christ on the inside, but we need to transfer that knowledge to our physical minds and thereby change our physical emotions and actions.

It is not our spirits that we are trying to train in the Word of God. Rather, the Holy Spirit is trying to train our physical minds to let the perfect wisdom of Christ, which is already resident in the spirit of every believer, prevail over our carnal thinking.

How can we tap this mind of Christ?
God’s Word is Spirit and life (John 6:63) ASV
 " It is the spirit that gives life; the flesh profits nothing: the words that I have spoken unto you are spirit, and are life."

. God’s Word has written in print what is written in our hearts in the mind of Christ.
Therefore, as we study God’s Word with the revelation knowledge of the Holy Spirit, this mind of Christ is reproduced in our physical minds and the life of God is released in our bodies.

{Andrew Wommack's Living Commentary.}

God will often speaks things to you so that you can make decisions based upon your spiritual mind instead of your physical mind.  To most people, this sounds like I am from another planet.
 They have never thought before about the fact that they have two - minds.
Yet the Bible tells you not to be double minded.  See James 4:8

This is where the rubber meets the road  in your life  - as your thoughts and the mind-set you use will either build your future existence or take you from the truth!

.   You should living from your heart  - not just your physical head, based upon the world around you.

 Let you Spirit mind lead your eternal life....
