God Thinking XLVII - Unlearning 5

"God designed the perfect plan so that you could have confirmation and assurance in what you believe, i.e., what you already believe to be true and what you hear whether it is true.

God set in order life as we know it and God has set in order certain inalienable rights and certain immutable/unchangeable truths, and these rights and these truths are for His people.  

What you have been taught and believe and what you are taught and will come to believe must pass the test of God if you are to keep it as worthy of possession in your mind.

It must be verified from the spoken Word of God or from the written Word of God and confirmed by the indwelling Holy Spirit - inside your inner man.

That’s what God thinking is all about, you “put on” those things that God ordains/proclaims - you literally put on the mind of Christ.   

But one element of God thinking that we have not dealt with extensively: is unlearning what we have learned that is not linking God thoughts with God thoughts.

Unlearning the thoughts that are erroneous is just as important in putting on the mind of Christ as learning new thoughts. 

Unlike learning, unlearning thoughts requires discipline and a lot of it."
