“And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God,” Romans 12:2.

“Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ,” 2 Corinthians 10:5.

“What are the issues around us in the world, many would say? For there are wars, and there are the rumors of wars. There are battles that are being fought every day. And even with the many battles that are being fought all around us, the greatest battles that are being fought are in your hearts and minds.

For the mind is the battlefield. That is where the real battles are fought. For with your thoughts, you can choose to pursue things of peace or things that would cause wars. For all the great battles that have ever been fought in this world, began in the hearts and minds of men.

For wherever there has been greed or corruption, there the seeds have grown and corrupted unto an entire garden of weeds and thistles.

So my people, the real issues are the hearts and minds of people. It is not about all the myriads of issues that you ponder. ”
