What does the Bible say about having the mind of Christ?

Answered in 11 sources

The Bible teaches that we should have the mind of Christ, as stated in Philippians 2:5, where Paul commands believers to adopt Christ's attitude of humility and servitude.

In Philippians 2:5, Paul commands the church to have the same mindset as Christ Jesus. This means adopting His attitude of humility, service, and complete submission to the will of God. The mind of Christ embodies selflessness and unity, focusing on the interests and spiritual well-being of others rather than one’s own. By reflecting on the humility of Christ, who, despite being in the form of God, did not cling to His divine rights but instead emptied Himself, we understand that true greatness in the kingdom of God comes from serving others. This attitude is essential for fostering unity within the body of Christ.
