1 Corinthians 2:14–16
14 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.
15 But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one.
16 For “who has known the mind of the LORD that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.
The mind of Christ! The “natural man” does not have the mind of Christ. The things of God mean nothing to him. The things of God are spiritually discerned. We can have the Mind of Christ.
There is the “natural man”, and the “Spiritual man.” The natural man knows nothing of God. He may think he does but NO! he does not.
The judgement of God is upon those who do not know Him. The judgement of God is upon the nation that has turned its back on God.
Throughout history great nations have turned their backs on God. The question is asked in Psalm 2:1 “Why do the nations rage, And the people plot a vain thing?” We set ourselves up as the god of our own life. Even those who profess God live as the “natural man”.
God’s people, the church, must stand and stand firm for God. The church, the true believers in Christ have “the mind of Christ.” How many people sit in a church service plotting the evil desires of Satan?
There is no place for duplicity in God’s kingdom. We either worship God or we worship Satan. There is no in between. Zephaniah 1:2 “I will utterly consume everything from the face of the land,” says the LORD. How do the great nations fall? They turn their backs on God! The United States of America has turned her back on God. The church has turned its back on God. Those who profess Jesus as Savior have turned their backs on God. Jesus says in Luke 6:46 “But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do the things which I say?”
Reconstruction of a great nation begins with each individual making the choice to follow Christ. THIS MEANS YOU! Galatians 6:7 “Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.”
