WE HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST
Keywords 2:16
"For who has known the mind of
the Lord that he may instruct him?" But we have the mind of Christ.
1. We declare God’s
wisdom (6-10)
The message spoken by God’s servants is a message of
wisdom. But it is not from human wisdom. The wisdom is God’s. But God’s wisdom is also a mystery. It is
not wisdom that can be discerned with the human mind or the human eye. For if
it could be discerned by ourselves, the Lord of glory would not have been
crucified. The mysterious wisdom is given to us by the Holy Spirit. What did
God reveal through the Spirit? “What no eye has seen, what no ear
has heard, and what no human mind has conceived.” This is the message of the
gospel of salvation.
2.
Who has known the mind of the Lord? (11-16)
Thank God he has given us the
Holy Spirit. Through it we can discern the wisdom of God. It is not a mystery
to those who God has called and given his Spirit. With the Spirit of God, we
understand the message of God’s wisdom. It is no longer a
mystery to us! Those without the Spirit cannot understand. God’s message is only foolishness to
them. But to those who have the Spirit, God’s message is one of power and
salvation for the entire world.
Prayer
Father, help me to have the mind of
Christ. Grant me deep discernment of your word.
One Word Have the mind of Christ
