You have the mind of Christ if you are saved and you are a disciple of His.

What does it mean, when it says, we have the mind of Christ?

 Philippians 2:5-6
Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who being in the form of God, did not consider it to be robbery to be equal with God.

 We are to know who we are in Christ, and all that God has given to us as joint heirs.

 1 Corinthians 2: 14
" But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

 Romans 8:5-6
For those who live according to the flesh (natural man) set their minds on those things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace

 1 Corinthians 2:15 But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one.
For who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?" But we have the mind of Christ.

 1 John 2:6
He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.

 How did Jesus walk on this earth? 
In compassion, for the lost and hurting.  He showed mercy when it was not deserved. 
He healed, and cast out demons, forgave, He showed great love for those that needed it the most.

 So if we have the mind of Christ, and we do according to God's word, then we also should be showing the attributes of God in our everyday life.

 Colossians 3:2-4
Set your mind on the things above, not on things on the earth.  For you died, and your life is hidden in Christ in God.
When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.

 Beloved, have a concern for the unborn, those innocent babies made in God's image, for the sick and helpless, people loaded down with guilt and shame.

 God will ask us what we did to help and protect those helpless children and people, when it was in our power to help.

 When we have the mind of Christ  we can and should show our love to others, Help where we can.

 With the mind of Christ in us, and the faith that Jesus gave us, (we all have a measure of faith,  Romans 12:2) and the power of the Holy Spirit, by that there is much we can accomplish, 
not for us to receive the glory, remember we are dead to our old self, and alive in Christ, we are to show His power on the earth. 

 The glory goes to Him, the praise and the worship for all He is doing through us. He does the work, we are obedient to the Holy Spirit's promptings.

God bless your day
Jesus loves you

 Love in Jesus
Joy

DOES IT MATTER WHO PREACHES THE GOSPEL, AS LONG AS THE GOSPEL IS PREACHED?

 G O S P E L= GOD'S OWN SON PROVIDED ETERNAL LIFE. This is the true gospel,  the good news!! What are we to conclude about this matter? Paul makes it clear, that whoever preaches Christ and the gospel, it doesn't matter, as long as the Gospel gets preached. Philippians 1:15-16 Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from goodwill.  The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains, but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Gospel. What then? Only that in everyway, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes and will rejoice. Beloved, there are all kinds of preachers out there, but their motives are not our business. Those that are preaching for all the wrong reasons, could later repent, and start preaching for the right reasons.  We have seen this through the years. We are to listen for the truth of God's word. I h...

SCIENCE AND THE BIBLE.

Science proves that God's word has it right for sustaining our life. Science says, that we need   four basic elements to sustain life and survive. We need air, water, food, and light. We have it all in Jesus, if we have received Him as our Lord. Science is right. It has proven God's word is true. Acts 17:25 (Paul was speaking about the Unknown God to the men in Athens) Nor is He worshipped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, Since He gives to all life, breath, and all things. We need air in order to breathe. When we receive Jesus we have His breath, breathing through our lungs. When we breathe, we speak the name of God. Just speaking His name, we inhale YAH and exhale WEH.   YHWH means breath of life. Our Jewish brothers and sisters know the name of God means breath of God. This is an interesting fact that we believers need to know. We also need light. John 8:12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, "I am the light of the world; He who follows Me shall not walk...

JESUS IS NOT A GLORIFIED BUTLER, HE IS THE SON OF GOD.

SOME BELIEVERS THINK THAT JESUS IS A GLORIFIED BUTLER.  Whatever they ask for they will have, whether it is right or wrong. JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD!!  YOU ARE NOT TO COMMAND HIM,  YOU ARE TO ASK HIM, HONOR HIM, AND RESPECT HIM AND HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.  I have heard some believers young in their faith and understanding, say that they have prayed for such a thing and God will give it to them. They are trusting in their faith, not their faith in God. (Works of the flesh, which is witchcraft) Witchcraft is attempting to manipulate your environment or circumstances. (SELF) Works of the flesh. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. (1Samuel 15:23) Galatians 5;19-20 NOW THE WORKS OF THE FLESH ARE EVIDENT, WHICH ARE: Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions , jealousies, outburst of wrath , selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, and revelries, ...
