"Do not be conformed by the patterns of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.  Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--His good, pleasing, and perfect will. " Romans 12:2 

When God transforms us He starts changing our worldly thought patterns,  He replaces them with His thoughts and His ideas instead of the worlds patterns.  We must be receptive by the renewing of our minds.  We are so forgetful that frequently we must renew our thinking.  So that we are on the same page as God, communicating with Him continually to renew our thinking..

So, how do we renew our minds?  Reading God's Word.  By knowing what God's thoughts are.  Then by responding in a manner as Christ would have.  How do we know what that is but to read and apply what His Word says.  

The worldly patterns of doing the accepted thing, is not the best course in God's kingdom.  Remember God's ways are up-side-down.  What is down is up, and what is up is down.  Opposite the worldly patterns.
