What does it mean to be reminded of something? Does it just mean thinking about something that happened a long time ago? Or does it mean remembering something that you were supposed to do? Does it do any good to be reminded to set your alarm clock if you don’t actually set the alarm clock?
In the Bible, being reminded of something is always an active thing. It’s not just sitting there thinking about what God said or did a thousand years ago. Remembering means DOING something about what you remember.
When we are born of God’s Spirit, the Spirit starts reminding us of what Jesus taught, and that means we should start DOING what Jesus taught us!
