The term "conditioned" is not explicitly found in the Bible; however, the concept can be explored through various scriptural principles and teachings that relate to the shaping of human behavior, character, and spiritual life. In a biblical context, being "conditioned" often refers to the process by which individuals are influenced or molded by their environment, experiences, and divine instruction.

Spiritual Conditioning

The Bible emphasizes the importance of spiritual conditioning through the renewal of the mind and heart. Romans 12:2 states, "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God." This verse highlights the necessity of allowing one's mind to be shaped by God's Word rather than worldly influences, suggesting a form of spiritual conditioning that aligns believers with God's will.

Moral and Ethical Conditioning

Scripture also addresses the conditioning of moral and ethical behavior. Proverbs 22:6 advises, "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it." This proverb underscores the role of early instruction and habitual practice in forming a person's character and ethical framework. The conditioning of children through godly teaching and example is seen as foundational to their lifelong adherence to righteous living.

Cultural and Environmental Conditioning

The Bible acknowledges the impact of cultural and environmental factors on human behavior. In 1 Corinthians 15:33 , Paul warns, "Do not be deceived: 'Bad company corrupts good character.'" This passage suggests that the people and environments with which one associates can condition or influence one's character, either positively or negatively. Believers are thus encouraged to surround themselves with influences that promote godliness and virtue.

Conditioning through Trials and Suffering

The concept of being conditioned through trials and suffering is also present in Scripture. James 1:2-4 states, "Consider it pure joy, my brothers, when you encounter trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Allow perseverance to finish its work, so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." Here, the process of enduring hardships is seen as a means of conditioning believers to develop perseverance, maturity, and completeness in their faith.

Divine Conditioning

God's role in conditioning His people is evident throughout the Bible. Hebrews 12:10-11 explains, "Our fathers disciplined us for a short time as they thought best, but God disciplines us for our good, so that we may share in His holiness. No discipline seems enjoyable at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it yields a harvest of righteousness and peace to those who have been trained by it." This passage illustrates how divine discipline serves as a form of conditioning that leads to holiness and righteousness.

In summary, while the term "conditioned" is not directly used in the Bible, the concept is woven throughout Scripture in the context of spiritual, moral, cultural, and divine influences that shape and mold individuals according to God's purposes.1. (imp. & p. p.) of Condition.
