UNDERSTANDING THE MIND


Much as the human mind has been
explored and discussed, it is yet to
be discovered in the laboratory or revealed through scientific experimentation. Indeed, understanding of the mind is not something that even the world’s best scientists, doctors, historians, or philosophers can give, for their finest explanations of the mind are speculatory at best. That’s because the mind is an intangible, spiritual entity, and only God’s Word can shed the best light on it.Hebrews 4:12 tells us:“…the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit,
and of the joints and marrow, and is a
discerner of the thoughts and intents of
the heart.”This is something the ordinary mind can’t do or give you. It takes the revelation of the Word of God through the power of the Holy Spirit to make such distinctions between the soul and spirit known. So we will begin with a simple definition of the mind:The mind is the faculty of man’s reasoning and thoughts. It holds the power of the imagination,recognition, and appreciation,
and is responsible for processing feelings
and emotions, resulting in attitudes and
actions.
