Biblical Nonconformity

God’s call for us to "not be conformed to this world" is fulfilled by "being transformed by the renewal of your mind" (Rom. 12:2). There it is, biblical nonconformity is simply being transformed by the renewing power of the Holy Spirit of God. The way that you are to stand against the culture's demands for you to embrace their ideology is for your mind to be continually being transformed by the joyous power and transformation of the Holy Spirit through faith in Jesus Christ. You see, your calling is to “be transformed” not just to be unconformed. This is a progressive transformation into what God wants us to be, more and more like Jesus Christ. This transformation is never only outward or physical. Instead it is primarily inward and spiritual. The reason our minds need constant transformation is because they are sinful, and apart from God’s grace we use them to defy Him and be conformed to this world. We must have a mindset to always be transforming through the washing and the regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit (Titus 3:5).
