If, however, your basic intention is, by God’s grace, to put Christ first and to serve Him, then you can reject all of the world’s ideas on how to become worthwhile (and good riddance to them—none of them work) and you can start filling your conscious mind with the truths of Scripture. When I was teaching this concept to a group recently, without forethought I shouted that we must ‘Fill our nous with biblical truths.” The Christian whose heart is truly committed to Christ would then look like the diagram following.

Rather than eliminating self, this person has understood that one is to lose self in Christ. “Not my will, but thine”; “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me”; “Whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it”; “that in all things he might have the preeminence.” Now there are two sources of input into the conscious mind: what Satan says through the world to our unconscious mind and what God says through the Bible to our conscious mind.
