Another type of mind people operates in especially in the church, is the religious mind. This is a mind programmed to hold on to the old truth and are not opened to the dynamic revelation of the word of God. Such mind is ready to fight in readiness to defend their old beliefs, that their fathers have handed over to them and they are not ready to receive a new revelation. Very good in quoting what God said, but not in what God is saying.
The leaders of Israel at the time of Jesus were in this narrow minded situation. They held on so tightly to what Moses told them and they refused to accept and believe the gospel of Jesus. They saw all that Jesus was saying as blasphemy. As far as they are concerned God cannot send anyone apart from Moses. That way, they kill most of the prophet sent to them by God mercilessly just to defend their faith and thinking they were defending God.
Friend, if anyone around you have this mindset, you need to help them in prayer. They can't enjoy the help of the Holy Spirit and can't be used by God. They can pretend to be religious, but deny the power of the gospel (Col 2:20-23). Be careful of people like this, they can kill for God but can't allow God in their thinking. Such can only listen to the truth of the word of God during a trouble in life. As we pray for the salvation of the soul of such people, God can arrest them and save them. Peace
PRAYER: Lord, help me not to refuse your light in my heart
