In regard to evil be infants, but in your thinking be adults. 1 Corinthians 14:20 THE CHRISTIAN MIND 1.God made us so that as we grow in knowledge, we become more like Him. 2.Just knowing what? and how? does not tell us why? 3.Truth is discovered not created; Truth is public not private; Truth is liberating not limiting. THE CHRISTIAN MIND So what? Value your education. Take advantage of the opportunity God has given you. Think deeply and broadly. Communicate. Talk, write... Live. Be doers of the Word.
