We Have the Mind of Christ

A. B. Simpson was an author, hymn writer, conference speaker, evangelist to the urban masses of New York City, and a missionary statesman.  He founded The Christian and Missionary Alliance and Nyack College.

The following is from his book Wholly Sanctified:

"He [the Lord Jesus] thinks His thoughts in us and not only reveals to us divine truths, but gives us a divine capacity to understand them.

"It is not a similar mind but the same mind that was in Jesus that we are exhorted to possess.

"How it quickens the languid thought, clarifies the obscure conception, enlarges the vision of the soul, kindles the imagination and inspires every lofty and heavenly impulse to enthusiasm, until the soul takes wings and mounts up into the heights that are to others inaccessible and which are full of glory!"
