Default Re: A Wake Up Call - God is Speaking to Us

In my opinion, we've been on this thread for a while. The "mind of Christ" is a welcome digression from the OP thesis. Paul claimed to have it. Do any of the 40,000 Christian denominations including Witness Lee's Local Churches have it today? Hard to say. Probably not. Reading I Corinthians 2 it seems that Paul is identifying his consciousness with the transcendent consciousness of God: the Divine Spirit syncretized [a transliteration of the Greek word Paul uses] with the spirit of anthropos. It's a claim that is perennially being made by some, believed by some and never been conclusively proved by any. Therefore, I see it as a claim that requires faith. In any case, I seek the Mind of Christ, but, I do not claim to possess it and I am agnostic and skeptical about Paul and anyone who claims it today.
