Hello. I'm rather new to this forum, but just want to express thanks for all the wonderful articles discovered! Truly, what a blessing to be in fellowship with believers in our LORD Jesus Christ!

I was reading these couple verses in I Corinthians 2:14-16, and frankly, mulling. Please pardon my thoughts.

"But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. For 'who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?' But we have the mind of Christ."

"But we have the mind of Christ"??

I guess it just amazes me that he could say that! Knowing the humility of Paul's character, and the humility with which he handled his duty as a minister for the Gospel, his godly concern, passion and care for God's people, coming only through the pure grace of God's Holy Spirit, makes that claim of his so completely warranted! I read that and think to myself, well gee, am I a Christian? Am I loving and obeying the LORD as I ought?? Am I continually striving through the grace of the Holy Spirit to think His thoughts after Him, to be a wise person, whether I sit down, or whether I rise up, whether I eat or drink or in whatever I do, to give Him the glory?
