Christ-Like Thinking Pt. 1

In Philippians 4:8, Paul addresses the content of the Christian's thought life. The things with which we fill our minds have a direct bearing on our experience of the joy of the Lord and the peace of God. The list of attributes that should govern our thoughts is a perfect description of Christ who's way of thinking and attitude of humility we are told to follow (2:5 ff.). Those attributes are also true of the Gospel.
