A FULL INSTALL

This is the new covenant I will make with the people of Israel on that day, says the Lord: I will put my laws in their minds so they will understand them, and I will write them on their hearts so they will obey them. I will be their God, and they will be my people. (NLT Hebrews 8:10)

One of the options when installing a new application from Microsoft is to partially install or to install it all. If you do a partial install, everything works fine until you attempt to access a new feature. Then you must put the CD back in so the new feature can be added to the installation.
Although this is in Hebrews, the writer is quoting scripture, old testament prophecy. God is speaking of mankind having the mind of Christ.

As we move from our position in the world to our place in Christ our mindset is changed from carnal to spiritual. When we were saved we were given His mind, the mind of Christ.

No longer are we limited to what we know, to what we have experienced in our lifetime. We don't have to be able to figure it out by our self.

We have the mind of Christ. We have the complete database of eternity at our fingertips. He installed it all. Whatever we need, He will supply. We do not have to go to school to hear it. We don't have to pass a course or get a piece of paper to prove anything.

When we received Him into our life we received it all.
