Sermon #1505 – “The Mind of Christ” Pastor Jason Sharp | December 3, 2025 | Calvary OKC
What does it mean to truly think like Jesus? In this midweek message, Pastor Jason Sharp teaches that the greatest battles of the believer happen in the mind, not the circumstances. Using 1 Corinthians 2, Colossians 3, and 1 Corinthians 15, he shows how Scripture calls us to put away carnal thinking and embrace a spiritual mindset rooted in the Word of God.
Key Points:
1. The Natural Mind Cannot Grasp Spiritual Reality
From 1 Corinthians 2, Pastor Jason reveals that the natural mind cannot receive the things of God — they must be spiritually discerned. Carnal thinking leads to confusion, while spiritual thinking leads to clarity, identity, and victory.
2. Formation Requires "Put off/Put on"
Colossians 3 teaches a transformational process:
Spiritual maturity isn’t random — it’s intentional.
3. Exercise Your Mind Like a Gym
Pastor Jason explains the Greek concept of gymnasia — exercising the mind. Renewing the mind is not accidental; it requires daily practice, discipline, and reorienting our thoughts toward the things of the Spirit.
4. Set Your Affection on Things Above
The mind is the control center of identity. Setting your affection on things above is not emotional; it’s directional. This daily choice determines your spiritual altitude and the fruitfulness of your walk with God.
