Reclaiming The Mind Of Christ

10/5/2022

 

1 Corinthians 1:17-25

For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect.
For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

For it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent."
Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe.
For Jews request a sign, and Greeks seek after wisdom;

but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness,
but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

1 Corinthians 2:13-16

These things we also speak, not in words which man's wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
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.
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.

This is the word that was mentioned in our gathering last week. Reproduced above is an expansion of some of the Bible verses that Carter Conlon mentions. Carter Conlon is the overall Pastor of Time Square church in New York. However, this word is not to be found on their You Tube channel, but on that of their affiliated channel for World Challenge. Either of these sources are well worth searching out should you be interested to seek for more like this…

RECLAIMING THE MIND OF CHRIST — Carter Conlon

A HOLY COMMAND: Oswald Chambers on LOVE
— Love with all your STRENGTH--

IN DAYS GONE by we all used to love the creatures that exhibit reflections of the Eternal Good — honour and courage and strength, but when we are made one with Jesus Christ we find we love the creatures that exhibit the fruit of the Spirit.
[from ‘If Thou Wilt Be Perfect’]
