Intellect by itself ...


1 Corinthians 3:19 

19 For the wisdom of this age is foolishness with God.

As it is written, “He catches the wise in their craftiness.”

 

Intellect

 

Intellect my friend ... is of secondary importance

We do not sense with it ... The Lord existence for sure

The role of the mind’s perspective ... is simply to explain

To the outer man all the things ... the inner man endures

 

Words for others to understand ... what we know in spirit

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

Primarily the purpose of our life ... as we are truly seeing

Is characterized in brain’s sanctuary through intuition as devised

 

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

Then through new birth in Christ Jesus ... all things may be clarified

It keeps our mind from substituting ... for the hunger of intuition

And so the Will of God in us ... is truly magnified
