Php 4:8
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest,
whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are
lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if
there be any praise, think on these things.
Php 4:9 Those
things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me,
do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
True. Consistent with fact or reality; not false
or erroneous.(Dict. Def.)
Honest. Honest definition, honorable in principles,
intentions, and actions; upright and fair: an honest person. (Dict. Def.)
Just. Guided by truth, reason, justice, and
fairness (Dict. Def.)
Pure. Having
no moral failing or guilt: (Dict. Def.)
Lovely. Of a great moral or spiritual beauty (Dict. Def.)
Virtue. Moral
excellence; goodness; righteousness. (Dict. Def.)
Praise. The act of expressing approval or admiration;
commendation; laudation (Dict. Def.)
We are to think on
things that are consistent with facts or reality, things that are honorable,
upright and fair. We are to think on truth, justice, fairness, and things that
have no moral failing. We are to think on spiritual beauty, of moral beauty and
excellence as well as goo and righteous things.
Do we think on these
things? Or does Satan try hard to consume us with things that aren't real, or
honorable, or upright, or fair. Does the evil one wish us to have our thoughts
filled with immoral, guilt producing things, shunning things of goodness, of
righteousness? There is so much EVIL in
this world and it comes disguised in so many ways. We fail to see the evil because it's become
so commonplace around us. When we do see it we are quickly told we are wrong
that it is good. We are placated and encouraged to just ignore the evil because
it's what is everywhere and so common and believed by so many- millions and
millions.
More on this
tomorrow by the grace and will of God.
All through Jesus Christ our Lord, our Savior!
