Personalities are very different. But we cannot be defined by our personality in our new life in Christ. Each person is not just a personality but there are other definitions of a person that are more important to having an identity than the personality alone. And yet there are philosophies that intermingle the teaching on the personality as if that defined the central issue in the inner problems one experiences.  The mind is the place where self reflection is understood. What we think about ourselves is who we are. There is a difference between a biblically based mind and a philosophically taught mind. The principles of reality are the basis for that which we find our acceptance of the understanding of who we are. And within this knowledge we are taught to think from the frame work of blame and reward. All of our feelings about ourselves come from our view of our understanding of this knowledge. How we feel is determined by our understanding of those truths that are necessary and those truths that are secondary. Because when we determine a secondary truth as if it is necessary then we determine to redefine human liberty.
