II Corinthians 10:5 ” And we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”

For every wayward thought…every worldly concept of the mind…every daydream and fantasy, Jesus demands unquestionable obedience. For in this passage, Paul stresses the difference between the wisdom of the world and the spiritual wisdom of the Cross. He warns of being deceived by the wisdom/passions of the world, (I Corinthians 1:18-2:16, I Peter 4:2, I John 2:15-17) and that we can no longer love worldly or fleshly wisdom and Him at the same time. But rather, we need to break the bonds of every worldly idea, motive, desire, and decision and bring them all under the Will of God.
