Are we so earthly minded that we are of no heavenly good or are we so heavenly minded that we are of no earthly good? Here we find the two opposite ends of the spectrum of this Christian walk.
We can become so focused on the things of this Earth (the temporal and flesh oriented) that we lose our eternal perspective and become of little value to the kingdom of heaven. If we only focus on the temporal we shall not live in the realm of the Spirit and that is where the power to minister comes from – not our flesh.
Just as we must walk in grace and truth so must our walk be heavenly and earthly minded. As heaven is our home, earth is the place of our sojourning until we reach our home. And we are called, in our sojourning on this earth, to reach out and touch the heart of man by dispensing the grace and truth of the kingdom of heaven – which is the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
