The mind of Christ was one of obedience.
yes, be you transformed by the renewing of the mind. I have questions. Realize we all see it differently and seldom agree on everything. Honestly quietthinker I’m not SDA. Question then is ...because I’m not SDA does that mean I’m disobedient to God?
Realize also this always becomes too long for post. But the point is in your OP “for this cause God sends delusion” ...a working of satan...because they love not the truth ...comes a working of satan, a lie that they might believe the delusion. it says(I think) a powerful (strong) delusion. Can not think of any stronger or more powerful delusion then not able to see our own “wicked” “reprobate” deeds and need to come clean before God(turning to Him) but would rather see ONLY those wicked reprobate deeds of others. an example was the priest blinged out and riding in great flashy honor with his fine robe with superiority while pointing a finger at another man and calling that man vain. Isn’t that delusion the priest not able to see his own depth of vanity but only that of another? What a powerful delusion and lie it is. Another, not to get on the subject of homosexual but...a man and wife cornering to homosexuals jabbing a finger at the two men saying their relationship will send them to hell because only a marriage of male and female displays God. While after the man and wife beat the homosexuals in their superior seat...the husband and wife go home and treat each other like pure enemies: fighting, accusing, unforgiving, demeaning and destroying one another. A powerful delusion, or lie might be their claim their relationship displays Christ anymore that the homosexuals relationship does. Hypocritical? Trying to remove the splinter while neglecting a beam? So I was only suggested maybe they love not the truth but prefer to believe a lie: could also be the priest would rather believe he is not also a vain man. or the married couple would rather believe their relationship displays Christ and His union with His body based off gender accompanied by no actions of mercy, grace, love, “natural care” nor forgiveness. ...yet so thankful “we are not like those homosexuals.” highminded is in the above list also. Is “highminded” the mind of Christ?
Your OP mentioned delusion and a strong lie, a working of satan...evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived. What is deceiving and being deceived if not delusion and a lie? Timothy 3:2-14 what is delusion if not For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, [3] Without natural affection,
trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, [4] Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; [5] Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. [6] For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, [7] Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. [8] Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. [9] But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was. [10] But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, [11] Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me. [12] Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. [13] But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
trucebreakers. What
“truce” breakers, what “truce”, what admittance of no truce, if not Ephesians 2:13-18 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. [14]
For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us ; [15] Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man,
so making peace; [16] And
that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: [17] And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. [18] For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.
2 Timothy 3:3 Lexicon: unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good,
Trucebreaker:
irreconcilable,
786: without libation, i.e.
without truce, hence
admitting of no truce
2 Corinthians 5:19-20 To wit, that God was in Christ,
reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. [20] Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be
ye reconciled to God.
