But we have the mind of Christ

Every time I read this phrase in 1 Corinthians, I am completely blown away. I have read this passage several times, and I always stop at this phrase and ponder what it's implications are.

In fact, the whole passage from 1 Cor. 2: 6 - 16 is fairly mind boggling. Verse 11 says that no one on earth truly knows the thoughts of a person except that persons' spirit within him or her. In the same way, the Holy Spirit knows the thougths of God. It stands to reason then, that as Christians who have the Holy Spirit within us, we actually have access to the thoughts of God. He can reveal his truths, his will, and his purposes to us.

Maybe it's just me, but I can not wrap my mind around this. I can have God's thougths through the Holy Spirit. Think about that for a minute... God's thoughts, his awesome mind... we have access to this.

What do you think he expects us to do with this information?
