BEING LIKEMINDED

Philippians 2:2 Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.

Paul was telling the church that he would be filled with Joy if they would focus together on what was really important. He wanted them to think alike.
We know that God made us all different and that is truly wonderful. The world would be awful boring if everyone was exactly the same. What Paul was aiming at was their spiritual goals and their doctrinal stand.
When he said be likeminded, he meant that they should try to conform their thinking to the mind of Christ. What would Jesus Do? When he said they should have the same love that was a love for Jesus. It should be a love that is stronger than self and above all others.
Being of one accord meant that their mission and their ministry should be Christ oriented and Christ centered and egos should be left out of it. That would bring them to the point of conforming to the mind of Christ.
How do we know the mind of Christ? Read and learn your Bible. It contains the mind of Christ and the will of God.
