Unlearning

Acts 10.

"Whenever God is at work, He leads “at both ends of the line.” He prepares us for what He is preparing for us." (Wiersbe)

God prepared Peter to accept unclean gentiles as worthy to receive the gospel message, thus becoming fellow believers of the "way." God prepared Cornelius to receive the gospel message along with his family. Both were prompted by the Spirit to take actions by faith that did not make sense in their past frame work of thinking. We should unlearn as the spirit teaches us new thinking applications based on trust and faith from Bible precepts. Suffering, trials, and stressful relationships cause us, force us to unlearn as we are pruned toward clinging to the main vine (Christ). This is a very hard process and I admit it is a daily challenge with doubts.
