Renew My Mind?
In Ephesians, Paul tells us we need to renew our minds; be more Christ-like. We need to bring our thoughts into alignment with His. The NIV Bible version says, “… to be made in the new attitude of your minds.” Eph. 4:23. Renew my mind? Absolutely. It’s not presented by Paul as an option. How?…
