Engaging Our Culture: October 3-How Minds Have Become Lost and Reprogrammed

Video of the Day: Clip from the 2007 movie “The Bourne Ultimatum”

Bible Verse of the Day:

 The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God, Galatians 5:19-21.

Biblical Connection:

Bible verses were shared over loudspeakers during the morning announcements or read out loud in homeroom to guide students with a daily theme. Prior to the 1960’s, public education encouraged young minds to be kind, just and moral. In the decades that have followed, social media preys on tired and weak minds like David Webb. This is how lost minds have become reprogrammed today.

The apostle Paul explains to a first century church about the invisible battle that all human beings are facing. Beginning in Galatians 5:16-18, two forces are at work daily: human nature and the Holy Spirit. The weaker your mind becomes, the quicker that acts of the flesh become a part of your life. When this behavior becomes a pattern, you become a slave to sin like the words of James 1:14-15.

Closing Song:

After the love of his life was assassinated, Jason Bourne sets to find where it all began for him. Sleep depreciation led Jason’s mind into being reprogrammed by becoming a hit man. To snap human minds out of this spiritual amnesia, you need to study the words of the apostle Paul in Galatians 5 so that you can learn to keep in step with the Holy Spirit to avoid falling prey to future temptations.
