Renewing the Mind

After a nine-week digression, Pastor Martin resumes the Psalm 1 series by identifying secular education as a second major channel through which ungodly counsel reaches believers. He outlines five philosophical pillars of secular education -- the supremacy of man's mind, man's normalcy, a world of chance, man's good as the goal, and this world as the exclusive sphere of concern -- and contrasts each with the corresponding biblical principle. He urges believers to pray for a purgation of secularism from their minds and to saturate themselves and their children with the biblical worldview.
