A spiritual person “will have the mind of Christ.” 1 Corinthians 2:16
For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live, because those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. Romans 8:12-14
The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. 1 Corinthians 2:14
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Galatians 5:22-23
You will notice as you pass through life that those
who speak openly about their faith and tell how others can turn to our Lord,
often have people who don’t want to be around them. These people cannot accept
and understand the things that come from the Spirit of God as they are
foolishness to him.
Prayer: Dear Lord, we need your help to present
your message to those who are not spiritually discerned, so they may have the
mind of Christ as it says in 1 Corinthians. When we see people turn away
because of words they do not understand, help us know how to speak to them. In
Jesus name, Amen.
