Before Christ, our minds were corrupted by the carnality of this world. But when we united in a relationship with Christ, He made all things new. Scripture records in 2 Corinthians 5:17 this thought. "If any man be in Christ, He is become a new creation, behold all things are become new."
We believe that at the moment of conversion, the power of the Holy Spirit transforms our mind. From that moment, you daily choose to crucify the flesh, the old corruptions of the flesh, and the family dysfunctions you may have suffered. You lean on God to daily walk in a new direction.
Christians must daily choose to walk in a pattern that aligns with the Word of God. These values are opposite the pattern of this world in which you lived before Christ. The Word renews our mind and enables and empowers us to choose righteously. Proverbs 12:2 declares, "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—His good, pleasing and perfect will."
