Unlearing vs Learning

There is always those who feel it quite challenging to learn new things,

but have you ever considered how challenging it is to unlearn bad teaching?

The difficulties one has to unlearn bad habits that have been picked up along life's journey

and etched into a persons character over a coarse of years?

If we really take time and think about a new life in Christ,  living as a  true child of God,

does that present itself as being quite challenging?

We have all been taught the worlds way of dealing with and responding to things of this world.

The worlds view and God's view are through completely different eyes, and are contrary to one another.

The world way's and God's ways are in opposition to one another.

The worlds way of dealing with someone who has wronged you, is to get them back.

God's way is to forgive them.

The worlds way of dealing with difficult people is avoid them, ignore them, speak badly of them or to them.

God's way is to pray for them, love them and not return wrong with wrong.

The worlds view of money, is the more you get the more you have to spend to get nicer or more things, the happier you will be.

God's view is, the more money you have, the more you are able to give to helping others, the more you share and help others the happier and more blessed you will be.

We have all been taught the worlds way of managing life,  but as a child of God we are to let go, to unlearn the old, and open ourselves to learning a new way of living, A Godly way of living.

2Corinthians 5:17"Therefore if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come. The old has gone, the new is here.

Are you up for a challenge, unlearning v.s. learning challenge?

That you may learn to live more Christ like.
