Tuesday: The Mind of Christ
Some people believe that by changing the environment the individual will be transformed. Definitely, we should avoid places and circumstances that can make us more vulnerable to temptation (Psalm 1:1, Proverbs 5:1-8). But our problem with temptation and sin can be solved only by the transformation of our own hearts (or minds). Christ touched the core of the issue when He stated, “For it is from within, out of a person’s heart, that evil thoughts come — sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly” (Mark 7:21-22, NIV). This means that our minds need to be transformed in order for our behavior to be changed.
Read the following texts: 1 Corinthians 2:16; Psalms 24:3-4; Romans 12:2; Philippians 4:8; and Colossians 3:2. What does it mean to have the “mind of Christ”?

The Lord had promised that under the “new covenant” He would put His law in the minds of His people and write it on their hearts (Jeremiah 31:31-33, compare with Hebrews 8:8-10, Hebrews 10:16). It is no surprise, then, that in the Sermon on the Mount, Christ broadened and deepened the meaning of God’s commandments to the level of thoughts and intentions (see Matthew 5:17-48). So, we can gain victory over temptation only by God’s transforming grace and, at the level of thoughts and intentions, we should claim that promise so that we can stop sinful thoughts.
We will always have sinful natures until Jesus comes. But if we are in Christ, we are fully covered by His righteousness. Although we are not yet perfect, we are considered already perfect in Him (Philippians 3:12-15). “When we are united to Christ, we have the mind of Christ. Purity and love shine forth in the character, meekness and truth control the life. The very expression of the countenance is changed. Christ abiding in the soul exerts a transforming power, and the outward aspect bears witness to the peace and joy that reign within.” — Ellen G. White, Selected Messages, book 1, p. 337.
Only by a daily surrender, a daily death to self, a daily determined effort, by faith, to be obedient to Jesus can we have this kind of transformation in our lives.
| Imagine what your life would be like if you could stop even sinful thoughts. How different would your life be? What is the only potential way to have this be your experience? |
Amen!

Aunty, I think pastors should have advanced education. What do you think?
12 December 2022 | Dear Aunt Sevvy, I keep hearing of more preachers who have bypassed theological training (undergraduate and seminary) and have somehow managed to be hired after a few months of an evangelistic training course. Some conferences hire only such candidates, which makes me wonder if there’s a reason—or if we are just […] Source: https://atoday.org/85030-2/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=85030-2
Epistle of Paul: The Importance of Remembering the Sabbath #sermon #shorts
What does the Sabbath mean to you? The Sabbath is the memorial of God’s rest after He finished the Creation of the world, and it is a celebration of the perfect world He is preparing for us in heaven. This #short clip from the Global #Campmeeting sermon, “The Epistle of Apostle Paul: The Message of Hebrews and Its Relevance Today” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWjUgpCIWRE&list=PL-k2Gb-DBYo9tb9fHW_AxGxJ1R8MpNnpa&index=36 serves as a reminder that by observing the Sabbath, we are not only acknowledging God as our Creator but also as our Redeemer. Watch the video to learn more about the epistle of the Apostle Paul, which will strengthen our faith in these final days and remind us of the importance of the Sabbath. ————————————————————————————
