THINK ON THESE THINGS (PHILIPPIANS 4:8)

PHILIPPIANS 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

WE ARE CONSTANTLY REMINDED BY THE SAVIOR AND APOSTLES TO THINK JESUS: ABOUT A MAN WITH A HUNDRED SHEEP (MATTHEW 18:12-14) JESUS: A WOMAN THAT LOST A COIN (LUKE 15:8-10 JESUS: Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, The son of David. (MATT 22:42)

FOLLOWING JESUS REQUIRES THINKING HEBREWS 5: Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing. 12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. 13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. 14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

MATTHEW 5:48 48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. CONTEXT: BEATITUDES, SALT OF THE EARTH, CITY ON A HILL, LIGHT OF THE WORLD, LIGHT A CANDLE PUT UNDER A BUSHEL ETC…. (WHY DID JESUS TEACH THESE THINGS AND VERSE 48 AS WELL?)

GUIDANCE IN OUR THINKING PETER NEEDED HELP IN HIS THINKING: MATTHEW 16: Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ. 21 From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.

WHAT JESUS TELLS PETER: MATTHEW 16:23 23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men. CORRECTING HIS THINKING, THEN TELLS DISCIPLES TO DENY THEMSELVES (VS )

HOW DO WE THINK RIGHT? UNDERSTAND YOU MUST THINK LIKE GOD (ISAIAH 55:8-9) “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the L ORD. 9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.

GOD MUST TELLS US I CORINTHIANS 2: But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. 11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

THINGS I JUST DON’T KNOW HOW CAN I KNOW THE THINGS OF GOD? CAN’T KNOW ALL (DEUTERONOMY 29:29) The secret things belong unto the L ORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.

MENTAL METAMORPHISIS MENTAL (THE MIND) METAMORPHISIS (WORM TO A BUTTERFLY) ROMANS 12:1-2I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
