‘Disobedient Thoughts And Actions.’
2 Corinthians 10:5-6.
a) We demolish arguments against Christ in our minds. (Our own thoughts as well as other people’s)
b) We demolish every pretension that sets itself up against the Knowledge of God.
c) We take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
d) We are ready to punish every act of disobedience. (Especially our own)
e) We can expect the whole Church to follow this pattern.
(This QT teaches me to handle Disobedient Thoughts And Actions properly)

‘God Does Not Want His People To Spiritually Die.’
Ezekiel 18:31.
a) Cast away from us and rid ourselves all the offences and transgressions that we have committed.
b) Get ourselves a new heart.
c) Get ourselves a new spirit.
d) God does not want us to die.
(This Second one reminds me that God is Gracious and Merciful: God Does Not Want His People To Spiritually Die)

If we read 2 Corinthians with a humble and teachable thinking mind we can experience life changing Truth. The Epistles in the Bible are not just historical letters nor are they merely foundational doctrines of the Christian Faith. These Epistles are the Living Word of God, inspired by the Holy Spirit and totally relevant for today’s Christian and Church.
