Dirty mind in a Christian is synonymous to a dog going back to its throw-up. Filthy mind occurs when you long to have sexual intimacy with an opposite sex you see. A perverted heart is unholy!
If you are presently going through a dirty mind and you feel bad finding it impossible to pull out of it, then today’s message will help you.
How Do You Get a Dirty Mind?
It is a pity that no one on earth has the power to stop the agents of dirty mind because they are everywhere including the church.
Our dressing style is speedily tending towards nakedness and many pastors never condemned the demonic style of dressing and cosmetics in our society.
Before the later end of the 19th century, anyone that dress or appears seductive is referred to as a whoreson dog, but it is unfortunate that presently half nakedness of people on the street is seen as a normal view.
Your heart can become filthy through the following:
1. Giving attention to secular advert on the television or magazine.
2. Fixing your eyes on opposite sex who may/may not dressed seductively.
3. Listening and enjoying the worldly music.
4. Watching porn
5. Immoral touch of the opposite sex can give a dirty mind
When Does Your Mind Gets Dirty
Everyone who has eyes to see and brain to interpret gets tempted every day. The difference is that a transformed Christian would wipe the dirt away before it sticks to the mind, but the careless Christian allows the dirt to stick which results to a dirty mind.
Jesus says: “You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not commit adultery. But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” (Matthew 5:28-29)
You don’t have a dirty mind when you look at opposite sex and take your eyes and heart away instantly!
But your mind gets dirty when you look at the opposite sex, admire the look in an indecent way, personalize the figure and long to have him or her on bed.
Your mind gets terribly perverted when you lust after same sex or you long to be transgender – it is an abomination to the LORD.
