The Mind Of Jesus - John R. Macduff - Bog

Bag om The Mind Of Jesus

Today, "What would Jesus do?" is a question commonly posed by and among Christian believers. In this classic work of theology, author John R. Macduff poses a fascinating variation on this question: what -- and how -- did Jesus think? This volume is indispensable for anyone interested in delving deeper into Christian epistemology. "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus" Philippians 2:5 "Arm yourselves likewise with the same mind" 1 Peter 4:1 THE MIND OF JESUS! What a study is this! To attain a dim reflection of it, is the ambition of angel - higher they cannot soar. "To be conformed to the image of His Son!" - this is the design of God in the predestination of His people from all eternity. "We shall be like Him!" - this is the Bible picture of heaven! In a former little volume, we pondered some of the gracious Words which proceeded out of the mouth of Jesus. In the present, we have a few faint lineaments of that holy Character which constituted the living expositor and embodiment of His precepts. But how lofty such a standard! How all creature-perfection shrinks abashed and confounded before a Divine portraiture like this! He is the true "Angel standing in the sun," who alone projects no shadow; so bathed in the glories of Deity, that likeness to Him becomes like the light in which He is shrouded - "no man can approach unto it." May we not, however, seek at least to approximate, though we cannot adequately and fully resemble? It is impossible on earth to associate with a fellow-being without getting in some degree assimilated to him. Just so, the more we study "the Mind of Christ," the more we are in His company - holding converse with Him as our best and dearest friend - catching up His holy looks and holy deeds - the more shall we be "transformed into the same image."

Beskrivelse af The Mind Of Jesus

Today, "What would Jesus do?" is a question commonly posed by and among Christian believers.

"Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus" Philippians 2:5

"Arm yourselves likewise with the same mind" 1 Peter 4:1

THE MIND OF JESUS! What a study is this!

To attain a dim reflection of it, is the ambition of angel - higher they cannot soar.

"To be conformed to the image of His Son!" - this is the design of God in the predestination of His people from all eternity.

"We shall be like Him!" - this is the Bible picture of heaven! In a former little volume, we pondered some of the gracious Words which proceeded out of the mouth of Jesus.

In the present, we have a few faint lineaments of that holy Character which constituted the living expositor and embodiment of His precepts. But how lofty such a standard!

How all creature-perfection shrinks abashed and confounded before a Divine portraiture like this!

He is the true "Angel standing in the sun," who alone projects no shadow; so bathed in the glories of Deity, that likeness to Him becomes like the light in which He is shrouded - "no man can approach unto it."

May we not, however, seek at least to approximate, though we cannot adequately and fully resemble? It is impossible on earth to associate with a fellow-being without getting in some degree assimilated to him.

Just so, the more we study "the Mind of Christ," the more we are in His company - holding converse with Him as our best and dearest friend - catching up His holy looks and holy deeds - the more shall we be "transformed into the same image."
