Heart Transformation
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
The transformation of the mind takes time and takes high level of work. Because the Holy Ghost needs to format your mind of old nature, thought, lifestyle, belief system, traditions and many others. But you'll need to allow Him flush them out. When a believer is still operating in the old lifestyle he's said to be carnal.
You're not in the Old man anyone, you're now a child of God. Allow the thoughts of the scriptures to govern your life not human culture.
You see, we could got born again same day, same time, same year and even under same message but our growth process will be different. Some learn fast and some are slow.
Our spirit got born again but our soul needs to be transformed. So, it is possible that we are born again but our views and perspective to things is different because our mind is not renewed. In that case, the word of God brings the balance for all. No excuses.
When a brother is still making reference to how his father married 7 wives and he's planning to do the same, he's very carnal and not obedient to the scriptures.
Don't just go to church to mark attendance, go with the heart for transformation. When a person is living by the scriptures in every area of life, he's said to be spiritual. Allow the Holy Ghost.
Be intentional about your spiritual life and living to please God. The devil is not dead, and will still lure you.
Fellowship with God's people, read spiritual books, turn of the TV when immorality is being promoted, delete that worldly song and so more, so the Holy Ghost can operate fully in you.
You're now a New Creature.
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
