Being one mind with God



One of the ways we grow in sanctification (becoming holy) is by becoming one mind with God! This is a continual practice and well we never get there but that does not mean we can’t get very close so that we are living godly lives!

1 Corinthians 2:16 For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.

As JC Ryle says here is what the mind of God will look like in a follower of Jesus:

“agreeing in God’s judgement
hating what He hates
loving what He loves
measuring everything in this world by the standard of His Word.
He who most entirely agrees with God--he is the most holy man.”

So do you agree with God and follow as closely as you can or do you pick and choose what you want to obey and disobey?

Let us all grow in holiness by being of the same mind as Christ!
