10-15-15 On Mindedness

mindedness

For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

Romans 8:6 KJV

~~~~~~~~~~~

The carnal mind is focused on the flesh

And all the things of flesh are doomed to die.

It may look good today while it is fresh

But it will sure be rotten by and by.

There’s nothing wrong with passion in its place:

Creative drive is needed to produce,

But passion gone awry is bankrupt grace,

Like tying knots until you’ve got a noose.

If you want peace and everlasting life

The mind of Christ is really what you need.

The Word leads where the love of God is rife;

Such passion of the spirit should you heed.

The carnal mind will take you soon to death.

The mind of Spirit brings eternal breath.

    I concur.

    Proverbs 8:13 (NLT) All who fear the lord will hate evil. Therefore, I hate pride and arrogance, corruption and perverse speech.

    When we decide to hate evil then HE can take to the the next step with HIS Holy SPIRIT
