the mind is the home of faith which is wrong.

And for this you decided the guy was hell bound?   Get a grip.  

 

jt: John I have not ever consigned Newbigin or any other theologian or religious man to hell because

this is not my call. You need to read more accurately - we went through all of this last night. This was 

Bill's accusation entirely for which he has not seen fit to repent.

 

The mind and where it places it's interests is used by Paul to define that which is spiritual and that

which is flesh --------  Romans 8:5

 

jt: Yes we either walk after the mind of the flesh which is carnal or the mind of the Spirit. Romans 8:1-5 

 

(as opposed to more traditional notions of that tell us that sin, even a single sin, is that which makes

of "of the flesh").   John

 

jt: When one walks after the spirit they don't fulfill the lusts of the flesh because they are spiritually

minded but this is a daily choice.  However, faith is of the heart - When Peter preached on the day

of Pentecost people were pricked in their heart and 3,000 souls were saved that day (this is the

anointing of the Holy Spirit on the Word spoken by him).  Peter told Ananias & Sapphira that

'satan had filled their hearts to lie (Acts 5:3) Peter told Simon the sorcerer his heart was not

right in the sight of God (Acts 8:21) Philip told the Ethiopian eunuch to "believe with all thine

heart" (Acts 8:37) Paul and Barnabus spoke to the women washing at the river in Phillipi and

God opened Lydia's heart (Acts 16:14).

 

We understand with the heart - Acts 28:27 and the head follows along....
