Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on the earth. A renewed mind dwells on good, not evil. And finally, a renewed mind is focused on Jesus. A Christ-like character is a mark of maturity. As a result, we are no longer to be children, tossed here and there by waves, and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, by craftiness in deceitful scheming .
Children are wonderful.
But they do have their limitations. Two things which characterize children are instability and naVvetJ. Children are both fickle and easily fooled. You have probably noticed how quickly they lose interest and move on to the next adventure. It only takes about five minutes. And it is very easy to fool or deceive them.
