0:00.0	Welcome to the Daily Blade. The Word of God is described as the sword of the spirit,
0:06.7	the primary spiritual weapon in the Christian's armor against the forces of evil. Your hosts are
0:12.2	Jobi Martin and Kyle Thompson, and they stand ready to equip men for the fight. Let's sharpen up.
0:19.7	Romans chapter 12, verse 1 says this, I appeal to you therefore,
0:24.1	brothers, by the mercies of God to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and
0:30.3	acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the
0:40.1	renewal of your mind. That by testing, you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and
0:46.7	acceptable and perfect. You may be asking yourself, why do we need to know the Bible? Why do we
0:52.9	need to know what the Bible means? Why do we need to be
0:55.4	in the Bible every single day? And a big part of the reason Paul discusses here in Romans chapter 12.
1:01.9	You see, the reality is this. Maybe you put your faith in Jesus a long time ago, and I don't
1:06.9	know if you realize this, but do any of you still struggle with sin? Do any of you still
1:12.4	struggle with some of the same struggles that you had 20 years ago? Do any of you feel like you'd be
1:18.3	further along in the sanctification process than you are? Well, me too. Let me tell you why.
1:24.4	Because when Jesus saved you, he gave you a brand brand new heart Ezekiel says that he removed our
1:31.6	heart of stone and he gave us a heart of flesh he gave us his heart so he gives us a new heart a heart for him
1:38.7	and he actually restores our soul so that we will live with him forever. But you know what we do not get the moment
1:45.4	we put our faith in Jesus? We don't get a new mind. We still have the same mind that we had
1:52.2	up to the point of salvation. This means we still have the same characteristics that we've had.
1:58.0	This means we're still a result of the birth order that we were birthed into. We are still a result of the culture that we've had. This means we're still a result of the birth order that we were
2:01.0	birthed into. We are still a result of the culture that was influencing us when we were raised.
2:07.3	And so we don't have a new mind, but we do have a new heart. Well, what does that mean?
