In the days and times we live, there is an assault on the mind like never before. What we think about is vitally important! The Apostle Paul wrote the book of Philippians to the believers at Philippi, urging them to have the mind of Christ. THINK ON THESE THINGS by Michael D. McCubbins, Th.D., an internationally-known Bible scholar, will help you to realize the importance of considering things from a different point of view - through God's perspective.
Having the mind of Christ means doing the will of the Father. Jesus is God and equal with the Father, yet He voluntarily chose to empty Himself of following His own will to do as the Father directed. If we as believers genuinely desire to have the same mind as Christ, we must likewise submit to the Father's will.
In this book you will learn:
-How to be at peace with life or death
-The things of which Christ emptied Himself
-The right mindset regarding sacrifice
-The enemies of a sound mind - including our own selves
-How to resolve personal, mental, and emotional problems
What the world sees as gains and losses is very different from God's point of view. Paul wrote, "For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain." In order to experience joy regardless of circumstances, believers must be equipped with the mind of Christ.
