I’ve been realizing lately that the famous WWJD isn’t enough. It isn’t about what would Jesus do if He were in my shoes, but what would He think! After all, that’s where sin starts anyway, inside us. It isn’t the murder alone that’s the sin, but the thought of hatred. It’s lust, not rape that is against God.
I’ve been reading Philippians since late last year, and I recently ended up looking up the word “mind” in Strong’s. It’s used eight times in the little book, and only another 11 or so in the rest of the New Testament. Then I thought about how this New Testament church wasn’t being scolded for doing something out of line, but were told how to reach the next level of their faith.
I’ve got a lot more pondering to do on the subject, but I think whenever I see or her WWJD, I’ll be thinking deeper than that….
