It seems that you have a question about the phrase "in (one's) mind."

The mind is the conscious part of the human organ called the brain.
We use the expressions "in mind" / "on (one's) mind" meaning that we are conscious of the subject, that's all.

I will keep it in mind. (I will remember it.)
What's on your mind? (What is bothering you? What is your idea about something?)
Have you lost your mind? (Are you insane or crazy?)
Why did you change your mind? (Why did you make a different decision about something?)

Hi,
My main contention is that
I always went to Bible to find a witness when I formed my idea of English logic image.
To see the logic image of "the mind" is the great one for revealing all English logic images.
And my delight in realizing:
Finally, Matthew 12:34 is a witness who has done the work to explain my logic image and its logic relationship that is the same as I said, “the relationship is "it in my mind and it determines what I think /speak" . and the logic of image is in itself as I did.”
In the logic image of “it in my mind”, the “it” is the effector of the “my mind” and the “my mind” is the receptor of the “it”.
Bible has always provided evidence of the prototype language basis for my logic image, validating what I have known and practiced for long. (It is supported at the foot of the page.)
For example:

I mean what I say.

The logic image of it as Matthew 12:34 did.
= I have what I say in my mind as a purpose.
So, what I say determines what I will do.
= I am speaking seriously, and you should believe me.

2. It in my mind and I think it.
In [it in my mind], the “it” is effector of the “my mind” and the “my mind” is the receptor.
Why the “my mind” called for the receptor of the “it” for the “my mind” picks up the signal from the “it”. When I (my mind) operate in response to the signal of the “it” picked up by myself (my mind), the “I” becomes the effector to have the “think it” become the receptor of the “I”.

3. It was a nice house, but it wasn't quite what we had in mind.
(In this sentence, must arrange “verb to be and verb have” the logic position right, and the lines should knit together by means of the logic chart, otherwise, it is impossible to draw out the logic chart, because the logical position of verb put in the wrong place, not logical, and how can a logical chart be put out?)
*** the “in” to show it included in
………………………………………But
……………………………………….---------------------------------
……………………………………….it
……………………………………….was / identifies (the verb to be is the receptor of the "it")
……………………………………….not quite / not completely
……………………………………….the house
……………………………………….which
……………………………………….had / needed(the verb is the receptor of house and the effector of "we")
……………………………………….we
……………………………………….in mind (the "in" shows it included in)
It

4. In view of the facts, It seems useless to continue.
Of the facts……..is full of the facts….the facts is…..the facts fills
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
In view……………..the mind…………….....in the mind…...the mind

[in view of the facts]----the mind is full of the facts / the facts is in the mind / the facts fills the mind
As Matthew saying, when [the facts] in the mind, it determines what we say that it seems useless to continue.

You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good? For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of.

Hi;

You are unique.
I do not know of any other linguist or grammarian, amateur or professional, who uses the Bible as a reference book in matters of grammar.
Thus, from my perspective, your analysis is steeped in mystery. I cannot fathom your divine inspiration because it is outside my realm of understanding.

Hi,
May I send a message along with these chart?
Matthew 12:34
[for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks]
{Idiom}----- What the heart thinks the tongue speaks.

Strange to say, there are four versions of this verse, despite the different wording, but their English language logic charts are the same with each other. It will be a sign and witness to my chart to make sense.

[for] is function word and its meaning decided by the noun after itself so it should be at the bottom of the noun.
In 1, the “what” is the effector of the “speaks” , and the “full of what” is the effector of the heart. Because the “full of what” is included in the heart.
In 2, The “whatever” is the effector of your heart, and the “whatever” is the effector of “you say what”.
In3, The “out of that” is effector of the mouth speaks, and which is effector of the hearts.
In 4, [the abundance of the heart]----the “of” shows a part in relation to a whole; so the abundance is the effector of the heart, and the “out of the abundance” is the effector of the mount speakth.

You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good? For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of.

When babies are born, they do not know any language. Babies born to English-speaking parents learn English very well without any logic images or charts. For speakers of other languages, I have found that learning as a child learns can be very successful.

If native speakers themselves cannot understand these charts, then how can we explain them to someone who does not speak English? As I said before, your divine inspiration is far beyond my understanding.

AlpheccaStarslearning as a child learns

Hi,

Why can't fish swim out of water? to respond to "learning as a child learns".
On the one hand, this new understanding of the nature of the prototype of English was a jolt. I can tell you, now for it (my way), the language world of its original forms of life came into view in a straight way (the theory only one page). In the past that was not to be seen.
This information is powerful. I know it is. The language world I have found is so much richer, satisfying.

The so-called “logic image” or “logic chart” is simply a kind of pictogram that represents something and is so easy to see.

For example:

[a convinced Christian]------Of *** a Christian is convinced of her / his faith.

Of ***
----------------------------------
Is convinced
------------------------
A Christian
---------------------
(to be sure)
------------------------
of her / his faith

[I live / am in the city. ]------I exist in the city.
----I occupy a place. the “am” = identify; the “in” = involved in
[He is in the grocery way.]---the “in” = included in / involved in ; the “is” = identifies
[The acid bit its way through the metal. ]
in the city
---------------------
am / exist / live
-------------------
I

I……………………….I
Am…………………..occupy
In a place…………a place

he
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
is /identifies / is included / is involved/ is reflected
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
in the grocery way

the acid bit
--------------------------
(Identifies)
-------------------
its way
-----------------------
(Dealing with) “through the metal”

The narrow passages are roughly hewn in the rock.
= As a part the narrow passages are roughly hewn included in the rock.

Are hewn
----------------------------
(As a part)
The narrow passages
----------------------------
(Included) in the rock

[Can I interest you in this book?]
Its pictogram is a picture to say a thing is allowed to do? / the thing is to interest you and that you are surrounded or contained by wanting to buy this book.

the "in" means to be surronded or contained by something or someone

Is allowed…………..permission to do
To do…………………..has / receives / gains / experiences
That…………………….that
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I

………………………………..by wanting to buy this book
In this book………………to be surrounded or contained
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Matthew 20:12
Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal p
Using the “unto”, Bible gives us a very clear pictogram about the “equal to us”.

We know the “equal” means ability to extend to reach to the degree to answer to the need of us, and that is the pictogram in itself.
Why draw “equal unto us” to be at the top of “them”?
The reason is that the “equal unto us” means quality in which part of the nature of them is formed.

The pictogram of [made them equal unto us]:

Made
---------------------
Equal……………………….strength / ability
………………………………..needed / necessary
………………………………..for us
Unto us……………………..having
------------------------------------------
Them

[equal]----(of a person) having enough strength, ability for

Women demand equal to men.
= Women demand having strength / ability enough for men

Equal……………………….strength / ability
………………………………..needed / necessary
………………………………..for men
Unto men………………..having
-----------------------------------------------
Demand
……………………..
Women.......at the bottom of the sentence

Why draw "demand"to be at the top of "women"?
The reason is that the action of "demand" as a willing and "women" acts as a receiver /container to be filled with "equal unto men".
So the key player of the action "women" is the last receptor and the "equal unto men" is included in women.
