Living Wisdom

For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the spirit of the man that is in him? In the same way, no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. Now we have not received the spirit of the world, but the spirit who comes from God, so that we may understand what has been freely given to us by God. We also speak these things, not in words taught by human wisdom but in those taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual things to spiritual people. But the unbeliever does not welcome what comes from God's Spirit, because it is foolishness to him; he is not able to understand it since it is evaluated spiritually.
The spiritual person, however, can evaluate everything, yet himself cannot be evaluated by anyone. For: 'who has known the Lord's mind that he may instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ.
1Cor 2:11-16

There are two minds and two lives, which will we live out of? The Mind of Christ or the mind of the world (the flesh)? One brings life and miracles, one brings death.

My mother had an operation for suspected cancer but the doctor only found adhesions caused by previous surgery. What are adhesions? They are fleshly links from the parts of the intestines and other organs that are not normally there, they are bands of scar tissue as the body attempts to heal after surgery.these adhesions tie down moving organs, such as the bowel, and cause it to malfunction.

 In life as we attempt to heal ourselves, scar tissue is formed linking us to our sins, our past. However, living in the Spirit allows the Holy Spirit to heal us, without scar tissue.

I can have all wisdom, in Christ or all foolishness in the flesh. I have a choice. Amen! Life or death are before me.
