Decisions in the fear of God

SUMMARY: Believing in God's Word renews the mind and frees us from guilt and sin. We have a new identity in Christ and are no longer slaves to sin. However, deceptive philosophies and traditions of the world can absorb eternal truths about our liberation. We should trust in God's direction in decision-making and not our own understanding. As Christians, we are heirs to God's heavenly offspring and enjoy a privileged place in His heart.

When we choose to believe what God says in His Word, the mind is renewed. The liar who has clouded the understanding of this world so that the gospel of Jesus Christ is not known does everything possible so that the Christian lives feeling guilty for the past sins, the disappointments suffered, the losses, the depraved acts of our old nature.

There are also pulpits, which, since they find nothing encouraging to say from God, play the devil in a kind of vain talk conforming to anything except Christ. God raised the sword of his Word to definitively instruct us in this regard. The forgiveness that God propitiated on the cross of Calvary is the door to the greatest exponential of his grace. The Christian knows it, but the devil has been given a little power to tempt us, to test us. Deceptive philosophies come from your mind. "But we have the mind of Christ" (1 Cor 2.16).
