Oh, to think like Christ…
But even as we press on with the mind of Christ, anchored in good doctrine, problems continue. The tempter is still battling for control of the mind of man. Man’s return to obeying God is possible. It starts with our surrendering control of ourselves to God. This includes the mind. Intentional thinking is required and is evidence that the mind of Christ is in us. More evidence comes as we grow daily, as we obey God each moment. The Bible says the clearest evidence is that we love one another.
Just like in the garden, every man gets to answer to the question “Did God really say…?”. It becomes clear the importance to study to show ourselves approved, to really know what He has said. The heavenly host is watching us reenact the whole story of the fall, one day, one step, one question, at a time. Amazingly, this is for His glory and His delight.
