Romans 1:21 “Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became VAIN in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was DARKENED.”2 Corinthians 10:5 “Casting down IMAGINATIONS, and every high thing that exalteth itself AGAINST the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity EVERY THOUGHT to the obedience of Christ;”A SIMPLE TRUTH: Failure to listen to God always produces failure in life.WHAT ARE VAIN IMAGINATIONS?Vain imaginations are your thoughts when they rise above God’s thoughts. They are ideas that compete with Scripture instead of submitting to it.No matter how intelligent, sincere, or popular a thought may be—if it stands in opposition to God’s Word, it is VAIN.THE TEST: Compare your thoughts to the thoughts of God.If you think differently than God, you are not being “open-minded”—you are being disobedient.And Scripture is clear: When thoughts are not brought into obedience to Christ, trouble is not optional—it is inevitable.
