"You are responsible to God for the indulgence of vain thoughts; --for from vain imaginations arises the committal of sins,
--the actual doing of those things upon which the mind has dwelt.
--Govern your thoughts,
--and it will then be much easier to govern your actions.
Your thoughts need to be sanctified.
Paul writes to the Corinthians: "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."
