Top Shelf Thinking

25 Sep

What kind of mindset do you keep in your head? Are you one who thinks too low of yourself, or someone who thinks highly of yourself?

BookcasePastor Reid Olson of Crossroads Church of Greeley teaches on Colossians 3:1-17, where we look at what it means to live a life holy to God. Have you ever wondered if the Bible is too full of rules and regulations? And, have you ever wondered if anyone can even keep all those rules in the first place? We obviously cannot keep all the rules to make God happy with us, but since God is already pleased with us, we have been given a set of life regulations, so that we can live a life fully unto God.

We have to make sure we keep the right perspective in order. We don’t live by rules to make God happy, or try to find salvation. It is when we receive salvation through Jesus’ work for us, then we can live unto a new “full life” standard that makes us fulfilled under God’s authority. Top shelf thinking is when we place our mindset on the things of God for our lives, rather than a bottom shelf mindset that lives for oneself and loses their purpose in life. You get to choose.
