Intellect


1 Corinthians 1:19 

19 For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and I will thwart the cleverness of the intelligent.”

 

Intellect my friend ... is of secondary importance.

We do not sense with it the existence of the Lord.

The role of the mind in perspective is simply to explain

to the outer man and things ... the inner man is looking for.

 

Words for others to understand ... the things we know in spirit.

For in spirit a man soars ... into the realm of God

Primarily the purpose of our life as we are seeing

the characterized brain’s sanctuary that somehow we forgot.

 

When the Life of God enters our spirit and quickens our intuition

through the new birth in Christ the Lord ... all things are clarified.

It keeps our mind from substituting and so to hide our perdition

as the Will of God in and through us ... is truly magnified.
