What does it mean to be spiritually minded according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

Being spiritually minded means having one's thoughts and affections aligned with the Spirit of God, leading to life and peace.

Romans 8:6 articulates, 'For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.' This distinction between being carnally minded versus spiritually minded signifies a fundamental orientation towards God and His righteousness. A spiritually minded person recognizes their sinfulness and seeks heart transformation through the Holy Spirit. This perspective leads to a life characterized by obedience and devotion to God. As believers are born again and their minds are renewed, they begin to align their desires with those of the Spirit, experiencing the peace that comes from walking in accordance with God’s will.
