Be transformed by the changing and renewing of your heart, mind, attitude, character inwardly or in appearance, to the values, ideals and behaviour of a fallen world. Believers should continually renew their heart and minds through prayer, pondering and reflecting of God's Word, by the power of the Holy Spirit and so be transformed and made like Christ. - 2Cor. 3:12-18 -

Transform refers to change radically in inner character, condition or nature. The apostle Paul exhorted Christians,'Do not model yourselves on the behaviour of the world around you but let your behaviour change, modelled by your new mind. This is the only way to discover the will of God and know what is good, what it is that God wants, what is the perfect thing to do. - Rom. 12:2 -

For us, our homeland is in heaven and from heaven comes the saviour we are waiting for, the Lord Jesus Christ and he will transfigure these wretched bodies of ours into copies of his glorious body. He will do that by the same power with which he can subdue the whole universe. - Phil. 3:20-21 -

Apostle Paul warned, 'Beware of false apostles, deceitful peoples, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. One should not be surprised - for Satan himself transforms himself into angel of light'.
These people are counterfeit apostles, they are dishonest workmen disguised as an angel of light, there is no need to be surprised when his servants, too, disguise themselves as the servants of righteousness. They will come to the end that they deserve. - 2Cor. 11:13-15 -

*Dr. Steven Selvaraju writes 'What is transformation?'

Many people think that 'transformation' simply means 'to change'. Yet, there is a difference. Let me illustrate this with an example; Imagine you are standing in front of the mirror and you notice that your shirt does not match the colour of your pants. So, you remove the shirt and put on one which you think is more appropiate. That is change. - Now, imagine you are standing in front of the mirror and you become aware that you are not happy with the way you usually dress. You feel the clothes you wear do not suit your personality or express who you really are. And so you decide to change the way you dress. That is transformation.*

I have through years of reading, pondering, reflecting and contemplating, the 3 things that last; FAITH . HOPE . LOVE and I would like to made available my sharing from the many thinkers, authors, scholars and theologians whose ideas and thoughts I have borrowed. God be with them always. Amen!

I STILL HAVE MANY THINGS TO SAY TO YOU BUT THEY WOULD BE TOO MUCH FOR YOU NOW. BUT WHEN THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH COMES, HE WILL LEAD YOU TO THE COMPLETE TRUTH, SINCE HE WILL NOT BE SPEAKING AS FROM HIMSELF, BUT WILL SAY ONLY WHAT HE HAS LEARNT; AND HE WILL TELL YOU OF THE THINGS TO COME.


HE WILL GLORIFY ME, SINCE ALL HE TELLS YOU WILL BE TAKEN FROM WHAT IS MINE. EVERYTHING THE FATHER HAS IS MINE; THAT IS WHY I SAID: ALL HE TELLS YOU WILL BE TAKEN FROM WHAT IS MINE. - JOHN 16:12-15 -

God bestows more consideration on the purity of intention with which our actions are performed than on the actions themselves - Saint August...
