HAVING THE MIND OF CHRIST

1Pe 1:13 ASV - Wherefore girding up the loins of your mind, be sober and set your hope perfectly on the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ

Hbr 9:14 ASV - how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish unto God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

CONSCIENCE IN THE GREEK
2) the soul as distinguishing between what is morally good and bad, prompting to do the former and shun the latter, commending one, condemning the other

a) the conscience
Greek: suneidesis

Conscience:
lit., "a knowing with" (sun, "with," oida, "to know"), i.e., "a co-knowledge (with oneself), the witness borne to one's conduct by conscience, that faculty by which we apprehend the will of God, as that which is designed to govern our lives;" hence

(a) the sense of guiltiness before God; Hbr 10:2;

(b) that process of thought which distinguishes what it considers morally good or bad, commending the good, condemning the bad, and so prompting to do the former, and avoid the latter; Rom 2:15 (bearing witness with God's Law); Hbr 9:1; 2Cr 1:12; acting in a certain way because "conscience" requires it, Rom 13:5; so as not to cause scruples of "conscience" in another, 1Cr 10:28, 29; not calling a thing in question unnecessarily, as if conscience demanded it, 1Cr 10:25, 27; "commending oneself to every man's conscience," 2Cr 4:2; cp. 2Cr 5:11. There may be a "conscience" not strong enough to distinguish clearly between the lawful and the unlawful, 1Cr 8:7, 10, 12 (some regard consciousness as the meaning here). The phrase "conscience toward God," in 1Pe 2:19, signifies a "conscience" (or perhaps here, a consciousness) so controlled by the apprehension of God's presence, that the person realizes that griefs are to be borne in accordance with His will. Hbr 9:9 teaches that sacrifices under the Law could not so perfect a person that he could regard himself as free from guilt.

Rom 13:5 ASV - Wherefore [ye] must needs be in subjection, not only because of the wrath, but also for conscience' sake.

1Ti 1:5 ASV - But the end of the charge is love out of a pure heart and a good conscience and faith unfeigned:
1Ti 3:9 ASV - holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience
Tts 1:15 ASV - To the pure all things are pure: but to them that are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled.
Hbr 9:14 ASV - how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish unto God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

2Cr 5:5 ASV - Now he that wrought us for this very thing is God, who gave unto us the earnest of the Spirit.
2Cr 5:9 ASV - Wherefore also we make it our aim, whether at home or absent, to be well-pleasing unto him.
2Cr 5:10 ASV - For we must all be made manifest before the judgment-seat of Christ; that each one may receive the things [done] in the body, according to what he hath done, whether [it be] good or bad.
2Cr 5:11 ASV - Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord, we persuade men, but we are made manifest unto God; and I hope that we are made manifest also in your consciences.

2cor 5-10 manifest in the greek Greek: phaneroo

Appear, Appearing:
akin to No. 1, signifies, in the Active Voice, "to manifest;" in the Passive Voice, "to be manifested;" so, regularly, in the RV, instead of "to appear." See 2Cr 7:12; Col 3:4; Hbr 9:26; 1Pe 5:4; 1Jo 2:28; 3:2; Rev 3:18. To be manifested, in the Scriptural sense of the word, is more than to "appear." A person may "appear" in a false guise or without a disclosure of what he truly is; to be manifested is to be revealed in one's true character; this is especially the meaning of phaneroo, see, e.g., Jhn 3:21; 1Cr 4:5; 2Cr 5:10, 11; Eph 5:13.
At the time this verse becomes alive and real in the future, it is speaking of the living and the dead in Christ at that very moment. The Lord showed me one day this and said at the very moment a person dies, no matter what state they are in at that time redeemed or unredeemed , that is how they will appear in their flesh at that moment of judgement, they will reappear just as they were at death. Because the bible says when we come to God with a repentant heart and an honest heart he will not despise us. And he at that moment gives you a robe of righteousness, and then we must keep our garment clean by washing it in the blood and in the cleansing water of his word . Eph 5:26 ASV - that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word,
Eph 5:27 ASV - that he might present the church to himself a glorious [church], not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. The word spot in this verse is sin in our lifes after our being saved and putting on that robe of righteousness. So we put spots on our white robe. That's why having a clean conscience is so important .      Mat 22:9 ASV - Go ye therefore unto the partings of the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage feast.
Mat 22:10 ASV - And those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was filled with guests.    This is the calling of God in your life right now. It says both bad and good there is repentance given by God to us all at this time in which we live ,  Luk 13:25 ASV - When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, open to us; and he shall answer and say to you, I know you not whence ye are;    I do not know you , or who's family you come from . For at that time Gods children will be clothed with a robe of righteous the garment of salvation.  Repentance is from the heart your flesh will die some day but a mans spirit will live for ever.  It is from the heart out of  a mans heart flow the issues of life. Out of the heart the mouth speaks . 

Mat 22:11 ASV - But when the king came in to behold the guests, he saw there a man who had not on a wedding-garment:
Mat 22:12 ASV - and he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding-garment? And he was speechless.
Mat 22:13 ASV - Then the king said to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and cast him out into the outer darkness; there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
Mat 22:14 ASV - For many are called, but few chosen.             

 When our conscience is wounded we immediately withdraw in our spirit and than comes the shame and we give place to the devil, and than we have no power to proclaim his word or truth . We can not be bold in his spirit because our spirit the old carnal man has captured our heart and stained our robe. Then comes the task of getting back to where we were in Christ restoring our faith with boldness. Jesus nailed our flesh with his on that cross we can not come down from our cross , that old man must die. Death ,burial and resurrection that is what Jesus accomplished and that is what we must go through. 1Jo 2:1 ASV - My little children, these things write I unto you that ye may not sin. And if any man sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
1Jo 2:2 ASV - and he is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.
I always wonder why people wear crosses , the cross is a sign of suffering and shame, but Christ has come down from the cross it does not hold him any longer,and so we to are free from the law of sin and death . Listen Jesus was perfected and glorified in his resurrection. And he has promised the same for us if we hold fast the faith that was once give to us. He said that we too will bear our own cross and because we love him we will stay there until all things be accomplished. Can you see how the apostate teachings have influenced our thinking . Its all leaven bread , it is infected with mans fleshly teachings it is not the true gospel of Christ . So many promises have been given to his church, be they do not see or receive them . Jesus was the unleavened bread the true bread of life. Jhn 6:58 ASV - This is the bread which came down out of heaven: not as the fathers ate, and died; he that eateth this bread shall live for ever. 2Cr 3:6 ASV - who also made us sufficient as ministers of a new covenant; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
We see the word now in the spirit not in the letter and the revelation of this word is in the spirit. That is how the Holy Ghost teaches us by revelation of Christ himself.
And the most wonderful thing about it all is that it is not tainted with mans ideals, it is his word in all its glory and we can read it for ourselves and believe. When he the Holy Ghost has come he will guide you into all truth. Do you have the truth, does the spirit of God dwell in you this day. Than you have all the promises at your calling. Isa 61:6 ASV - But ye shall be named the priests of Jehovah; men shall call you the ministers of our God: ye shall eat the wealth of the nations, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves.
Isa 61:7 ASV - Instead of your shame [ye shall have] double; and instead of dishonor they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess double; everlasting joy shall be unto them.
Isa 61:9 ASV - And their seed shall be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples; all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which Jehovah hath blessed.
Isa 61:10 ASV - I will greatly rejoice in Jehovah, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with a garland, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels. Can you smell the hyssop in this verse the hyssop Moses dip in the blood. And it says he struck the door post and the lintel with the blood and the hyssop. And the savor of the sacrifice filled the air. The sweet aroma of Christ his son filled the air and God was pleased. Col 1:27 ASV - to whom God was pleased to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. It says in revelations that Jesus is standing at the door ,the door of our hearts. The blood and the hyssop can only be applied when we truly open the door WIDE and say Jesus come into my heart and change me for ever. Most people just crack the door that's why you only see a little Jesus in them he cant get in all the way. The word jewels in Isa 61-10 in the heb means article, vessel, implement, utensil . Rom 9:23 ASV - and that he might make known the riches of his glory upon vessels of mercy, which he afore prepared unto glory,
2Ti 2:20 ASV - Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some unto honor, and some unto dishonor.
Hbr 9:21 ASV - Moreover the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry he sprinkled in like manner with the blood. The lord has called us to be vessels of honor and that we produce much fruit. Jhn 14:2 ASV - In my Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. He spoke this just before his death , Eph 4:8 ASV - Wherefore he saith, When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive, And gave gifts unto men.
Eph 4:9 ASV - (Now this, He ascended, what is it but that he also descended into the lower parts of the earth?
Eph 4:10 ASV - He that descended is the same also that ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.)
In Isaiah 61 we are that captive Isa 61:1 ASV - The Spirit of the Lord Jehovah is upon me; because Jehovah hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening [of the prison] to them that are bound; Praise God !! Col 1:27
Mansions in the Greek: mone

Mansions:
primarily "a staying, abiding" (akin to meno, "to abide"), denotes an "abode" (Eng., "manor," "manse," etc.), translated "mansions" in Jhn 14:2; "abode" in Jhn 14:23. There is nothing in the word to indicate separate compartments in heaven; neither does it suggest temporary resting-places on the road.
We are the mansions we are the abiding place of the father , Jhn 14:23 ASV - Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my word: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. Its Christ in you the hope of glory. You are the water pots the vessels unto honor, and the word he has given us will renew us and create in us the very nature of Christ himself . The wine is his blood and the word says that the life is in the blood , turning water into wine . 1Cr 15:47 ASV - The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is of heaven.
1Cr 15:48 ASV - As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
1Cr 15:49 ASV - And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. Eph 2:13 ASV - But now in Christ Jesus ye that once were far off are made nigh in the blood of Christ.
Eph 2:14 ASV - For he is our peace, who made both one, and brake down the middle wall of partition,
Eph 2:15 ASV - having abolished in the flesh the enmity, [even] the law of commandments [contained] in ordinances; that he might create in himself of the two one new man, [so] making peace;
Eph 2:16 ASV - and might reconcile them both in one body unto God through the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: Greek: apokatallasso

Reconcile, Reconciliation:
"to reconcile completely" (apo, from, and No. 1), a stronger form of No. 1, "to change from one condition to another," so as to remove all enmity and leave no impediment to unity and peace, is used in Eph 2:16, of the "reconciliation" of believing Jew and Gentile "in one body unto God through the Cross;" in Col 1:21 not the union of Jew and Gentile is in view, but the change wrought in the individual believer from alienation and enmity, on account of evil works, to "reconciliation" with God; in Col 1:20 the word is used of the Divine purpose to "reconcile" through Christ "all things unto Himself . . . whether things upon the earth, or things in the heavens," the basis of the change being the peace effected "through the blood of His Cross." It is the Divine purpose, on the ground of the work of Christ accomplished on the Cross, to bring the whole universe, except rebellious angels and unbelieving man, into full accord with the mind of God, Eph 1:10. Things "under the earth," Phl 2:10, are subdued, not "reconciled." God is calling will you open the door all the way and let him in. Hbr 10:22 ASV - let us draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience: and having our body washed with pure water, Listen I believe time is very short , and what I mean by short is this word has been on your table a long time, It has been there to feed you and bless you. A day is coming when the famine will come and there will be no more food of the word . And we will live off of the bread of life we have consumed in this day . Amo 8:9 ASV - And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord Jehovah, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day.
Amo 8:10 ASV - And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring sackcloth upon all loins, and baldness upon every head; and I will make it as the mourning for an only son, and the end thereof as a bitter day.
Amo 8:11 ASV - Behold, the days come, saith the Lord Jehovah, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of Jehovah.
Amo 8:12 ASV - And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east; they shall run to and fro to seek the word of Jehovah, and shall not find it.
Amo 8:13 ASV - In that day shall the fair virgins and the young men faint for thirst.
Judgment starts first in the house of God.
2Cr 5:1 ASV - For we know that if the earthly house of our tabernacle be dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in the heavens. 1Jo 3:2 ASV - Beloved, now are we children of God, and it is not yet made manifest what we shall be. We know that, if he shall be manifested, we shall be like him; for we shall see him even as he is. 2Cr 5:1 ASV - For we know that if the earthly house of our tabernacle be dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in the heavens. We are the sons of God just like Jesus, if he shall be manifested in us, manifest means to shine forth, we shall meet him in the air, this old body of flesh will fall off and whats left is Christ in us the hope of Glory . God is not coming back for the plant our old body, he is coming back for the fruit the we have produced in our life on this earth. Mat 13:3 ASV - And he spake to them many things in parables, saying, Behold, the sower went forth to sow; Jesus is the sower and he is sowing the word of God. Mat 13:8 ASV - and others fell upon the good ground, and yielded fruit, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
Mat 13:9 ASV - He that hath ears, let him hear. The good ground is our heart . We want a hundredfold in our heart. I Cor 15 has the revelation of this parable. Phl 2:12 ASV - So then, my beloved, even as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;

In His Name
