Double Minded, Forked Tongue

Jesus was the most heavenly minded person
that ever walked this earth.


If you consider your self a God person- one of God's people, then,
the Word of the Lord to you- from The Book of Romans chapter 12 is
that a change has to happen in the way of your thinking.
A change in your thinking will change you.
You can see that if thinking does not change,
then you will not change.


A heavenly minded view is exactly what you need.
You already know the earthly point of view.

This is the way the scripture says it,
" be transformed by the renewal of your mind"
-ESV

the reason for this - it goes on to say- is so
"you will be able to know the will of God"
-GNB

If you pray, "thy Kingdom come, thy will be done"
and if you want that in your life,
then you will need to have your mind like Jesus mind.
The mind of Christ is a heavenly mind.
The way Christ lived was heavenly.

Another scripture gives a little more insight to this:
"if we say that we remain in union with God,
we should live just as Jesus Christ did"
-1Jn 2:6 -GNB
AND that cannot be done with out having the same heaven point of view as Jesus did.

Then of course,
we have heard to set our mind on things above,
not on things down here.

Have you heard that saying,
"they are so heavenly minded that they are no earthly good"?
or maybe you heard it different,
like "they are so earthly minded that they are no heavenly good".
I usually hear these sayings as a put down to people who think differently.

As always, you will have to choose.
Make up your mind.
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world;
but that the world through him might be saved.
-John 3:17

Now let me leave you with these word of Christ the Master,
"I am come that they might have life,
and that they might have it more abundantly."

On the other hand, you can be so religiously minded that . . . .

Well let me just say to you,
Have a God day
