Receive The Mind Of Christ

All English Service

Christian faith, in its very essence, is transformation of a person in their roots after born again, as the Holy Spirit enters in him working supernaturally inside which eventually resulting in one having Lord supreme in his life. When genuine transformation take place incrementally in a believer, the mind of Christ seeds into him gradually and progressively. One cannot imitate the mind of Christ and force himself to live by it. He will lose strength to do so and fail to see how God is supremely in - charge of his living. Instead, it is purely by the grace of God that works supernaturally and mundanely in our every day lives can one receive the mind of Christ. As we confirm it through deep meticulous prayers with the Word, the total submission to God that ensue embeds great power of Holy Spirit, ceaselessly demolishing your old self and restore the mind of Christ within you. "the faith and love that spring from the hope stored up for you in heaven and about which you have already heard in the true message of the gospel that has come to you. In the same way, the gospel is bearing fruit and growing throughout the whole world—just as it has been doing among you since the day you heard it and truly understood God’s grace" --Colossians 1:5-6

Love is not a new topic for believers. Yet as we lead our lives, our definition of love, as God would have it, can be easily distorted, misunderstood, and instead of being a glorious tool for us to glorify God and love men, becomes experiences that is against our spirit. Let us reexamine what God means by His command to love.

Verses to Read: Jn 13:34-35, 1-5, 12-30

  • Command: “Love one another”
  • Promise: “Everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

Our Flawed Love

  1. Love in our own capacity
  2. Our Perspectives
    1. Perspective of self
    2. Perspective of others

Love of Christ

  1. Humble Love
    – The humble love of Jesus will     propel us to love more & beyond like Him.
  2. Love with a price
    – If we choose to love but are wronged in return, Jesus will look even more real and beautiful in our love.
  3. Love with Authority
    –  Jesus has the authority to command us not because He is God, but because He is Love.

How to Love One Another?

  1. Be loved by God first
    <1 Jn 4:19> We love because he     first loved us.
    <1 Jn 4:11> Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
    <1 Jn 3:23> And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us.
  2.  Love like Jesus Christ (acts of love)
    – Give time
    – Guard our speech
  3. Intercession
    – Love purposefully, not blindly
    – Come out of the devil’s deceptions
    – Indeed loved by God in the process
