Christian Life: NOT about List Consulation but instead About Intuition Transformation (....Matters of Mastery?)

August 13, 2008 question to Pastor John Piper : "how should I spend my time."

Here is part of his answer:

"...as I face all the decisions of today, how will I have a spiritual taste bud so that I can taste what is the will of God, what is good, acceptable and perfect? And the answer that the Bible gives is, 'Get a transformed mind.'

So we labor in the word and in prayer not just to figure out lists of deeds that are more or less acceptable, but we labor to get a mind that thinks and feels about things the way Christ does. So that when a phone call comes in, or an opportunity to go somewhere arises, or we have to chose this or that, there is something about our minds that discerns where Christ would be magnified, where faith would be built, and where people would be loved.
