A believer in the Lord Jesus Christ is not just one who attends a church and has his name written in a membership book, but his name is written in heaven in the book of life. He is a new creation, with a new Spirit filled heart. We must keep our hearts by feeding the heart the word of God and submitting to the will of God Col 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. To spoil in this verse is to be led away from the truth. Beware of clever men of the worlds thinking and empty deception, who follow man made rules and customs, after the accepted princ- iples of the world, and not after Jesus Chriat. Do you know that we have two minds? The natural mind often is swayed by the lusts and wrong thinking of the worlds people. When you are in Christ there is the mind of the heart, the mind of the Spirit, that is called the mind of Christ. We renew our spiritual mind with the word of God. We submit to the Spirit in all our ways. Jesus has finished all that was needed to make us complete when he gave His life in our place on the cross. By faith we receive him into our life, and we are changed. We are com- plete in him. Now we are to be conformed to His image in all godly character. This is our spiritual fruit.
