between our thoughts and behavior. For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts: murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies (Matthew 15:19). Proverbs 23:7 says, "As the thoughts are in his heart, so is he." Our thought patterns, both good and bad, shape the way we live. When we fill our minds with God's truth, it changes us from within. By thinking of His thoughts, we begin to act according to His ways. Our actions follow our thinking. That is why we must be vigilant not to captivate wrong thoughts and update our point of view in accordance with biblical principles. However, if we are not careful, we can still develop an earthly mindset that is not in line with our true selves. The Bible directs believers to focus their thoughts on a spiritual level. Set your mind on things above, not things on the earth (Colossians 3:2). Earthly thinking leads to sin and destruction, while heavenly thinking leads us to walk for God's purposes. We don't have to try to change our thinking on our own. The Holy Spirit works to renew our minds as we submit to Him. The Spirit begins to lead us to the truth and shape our thinking (John 16:13). The renewal of our minds is a supernatural process controlled by the Spirit. Once our minds are renewed, we must maintain right thinking and not fall back into worldly thought patterns. Our earthly thinking changes to heavenly, from temporal thinking to eternal [5]. We fulfill our destiny on this earth. II. S piritual and M aterialistic T hinking The most important advantage of man among other creatures of God is that the Creator was pleased to bring him closer in His own image and likeness. God, by His nature, is the purest Spirit, not clothed in any body and not participating in any materiality. God is the All-Wise Spirit, endowed with the ability to think. The human spirit also has thinking abilities in the likeness of the Creator. The thinking of the human spirit is the ability to think and perceive the world not through the prism of specific facts and material things, but through the understanding of spiritual needs and ideals. This is the ability to highlight the deep meanings of our worldview. God's word helps shape a person's spiritual thinking and outlook. The materialistic thinking of the soul deals only with what can be seen, tasted, smelled, heard or handled. It accepts only what can be proven by practice and demonstrated in the laboratory. And since no one has ever seen God, and therefore his existence cannot be proven, the materialist erroneously denies the existence of that silent and invisible Power which operates from within himself. A person who thinks spiritually feels that thought often comes as if from the depths of his soul, that is, from the spirit. This phenomenon cannot be demonstrated in the laboratory, but it brings peace to the soul. Spiritual thinking provides security to a person, and in the aggregate to humanity, which is characterized by the unity of a person and society, when the spiritual needs of people coincide. Those who think spiritually value righteousness, peace, and fair dealing (invisible) more than dishonest material success (visible). Spiritual people have a group consciousness. They live in love to all, not harming anyone. Spirit determines the order of spiritual, moral, moral and ethical existence. There are realities of different orders. There is reality as a physical, organic, mental, social world. There is reality as truth, goodness, beauty, value. The last kind of reality refers to spirit, to spiritual reality. Truth is not real like nature, like an objective thing, but real like spirit, like spirituality in human existence. The whole mind of man is spiritual, embedded in existence. In man there is a spiritual principle, as transcendent in relation to the world, i.e., exceeding the world. The spirit is the subject, it is the opposite of the thing. Spirit asserts its reality through man. Man is a manifestation of the spirit. Consciousness is connected with the spirit. Consciousness is not only a psychological concept, it has a spiritual element that constructs it. Spirit is always identified with power. He has a spiritual state. The spirit is axiological in nature, the spirit is truth, beauty, goodness, peace, righteousness, love, etc. The most important concept of the nature of thinking is meaning. We are in communication, and this is due to meanings. The significance of meanings, their nature is not fully disclosed. Logical-semantic concepts of meaning appeared. A detailed analysis of these concepts is given in the book of the Lithuanian philosopher R. Pavilenis. He speaks of meaning as a kind of continuous non-verbal construct and of comprehension as an interpretation in an individual conceptual system: "Meaning is a network of meanings in certain positions and an operational algorithm for solving problems." Human existence is built on the basis of generation and understanding of meanings. “If we want to talk about the meanings of our World as a whole, then their nature will have to be attributed to a textual and linguistic structure,” writes V.V. Nalimov. In this position, his theory follows from the hermeneutic philosophy of M. Heidegger, who, revealing the theory of knowledge, proceeds from an ontologized idea of the World. The nature of meaning can be revealed through the simultaneous analysis of the semantic triad: meaning, language, text. The textual disclosure of meanings occurs through those sign systems that we are ready to perceive as languages. Each element of the triad described above is revealed through the other two. Including language in the triad, we introduce the idea that the triad itself becomes possible only when there is an observer - the bearer of consciousness, and © 2023 Global Journals Volume XXIII Issue VI Version I 12 ( ) Global Journal of Human Social Science - Year 2023 C Formation in Family and Educational Institutions of Orthodox form of Thinking and Communication
