Bible verses about "eyes on the things above" | ABU

²³ But he turned and said to Peter: Get thee behind me, Satan; thou art an offense to me; for thou thinkest not the things of God, but those of men.

¹ I BESEECH you, therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, well pleasing to God, which is your rational service.

¹ BELOVED, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone forth into the world. ² In this ye know the Spirit of God: ³ Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh, is of God; and every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus, is not of God; and this is that of the antichrist, of which ye have heard that it should come; and now, it is already in the world. ⁴ Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is he who is in you, than he who is in the world. ⁵ They are of the world; for this cause they speak of the world, and the world hears them. ⁶ We are of God; he that knows God, hears us; he that is not of God, hears us not. From this we know the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. ⁷ Beloved, let us love one another; because love is of God, and every one that loves has been begotten of God, and knows God. ⁸ He that loves not, knew not God; because God is love. ⁹ In this was manifested the love of God in respect to us, that God has sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. ¹⁰ Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son, a propitiation for our sins. ¹¹ Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. ¹² No man has ever seen God. If we love one another, God abides in us, and the love of him is perfected in us. ¹³ In this we know that we abide in him, and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit. ¹⁴ And we have seen, and bear witness, that the Father has sent forth the Son, a Savior of the world. ¹⁵ Whoever acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. ¹⁶ And we have known, and have believed, the love that God has in respect to us. God is love; and he that abides in love abides in God, and God in him. ¹⁷ In this has love been perfected with us, that we have confidence in the day of judgment; because as he is, we also are in this world. ¹⁸ There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has torment; and he that fears is not made perfect in love. ¹⁹ We love, because he first loved us. ²⁰ If any one say, I love God, and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he that loves not his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? ²¹ And this commandment we have from him, that he who loves God love also his brother.

¹ IF then ye were raised together with Christ, seek the things above, where Christ is, sitting on the right hand of God. ² Set your mind on the things above, not on the things upon the earth. ³ For ye died, and your life is hid with Christ in God. ⁴ When Christ, our life, shall be manifested, then will ye also with him be manifested in glory.

² Set your mind on the things above, not on the things upon the earth.

⁸ Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
