THE CHRIST MIND

THE CHRIST MIND Php 2:5  Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: THE HUMAN/CARNAL MIND The mind encompasses our thoughts (imagination, reasoning, and intellect), as well as our emotions and will. In all of these aspects lie the very core of an individual. By our thoughts and feelings we determine our will and purpose for our lives. As Christians, we seek to live, through Faith, by the Truth and Power of GOD’S SPIRIT, Mercy, and GRACE because they are our assurance of GOD’S promised VICTORY in each and every situation in our life. Consider the POWER that CHRIST possessed, and yet, HE was the epitome of Humility.  He was able to effectually state “I AM” and yet, HE washed the feet of HIS Disciples.  Joh 8:58  Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. Joh 13:3  Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God; Joh 13:4  He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself. Joh 13:5  After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded. HE submitted his LIFE and was obedient to Death and yet, HE obeyed HIS FATHER’S command to take HIS LIFE back again.  This one article speaks volumes about the MIND of  CHRIST.  It seems humanly impossible to BE like CHRIST and yet, HE came to Earth, took on the form, likeness, and nature of mankind to make a WAY for us to do just that! The CHRISTOLOGY SERIES is a treatise on CHRIST.  There are articles that delineate, describe, display, depict and  explain HIS Holy characteristics, HIS sanctified attributes, HIS Eternal disposition,  and HIS boundless Love for GOD and man.  There is a link provided to view articles for possible TeleForum Discussions. The following is an example of support Scriptures.  There is much more which we will cite in the upcoming articles in this series. Php 2:1  If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, Php 2:2  Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Php 2:3  Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. Php 2:4  Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. Php 2:5  Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Php 2:6  Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: Php 2:7  But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: Php 2:8  And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Php 2:9  Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: Php 2:10  That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; Php 2:11  And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Php 2:12  Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. Php 2:13  For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. Php 2:14  Do all things without murmurings and disputings: Php 2:15  That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;
