QUESTION: “WHAT IS
MINDFULNESS?”
ANSWER: “A RAT
IN A WHEEL”
EXPLANATION:
It’s a man with
a tin can
continuously
scooping water out of a leaking boat.
It’s man, having
finished
painting the
Sydney harbour Bridge, having to start again.
WHAT IS THE
PROCESS?
It doesn’t stop.
It’s never ending.
WHO DOES IT AFFECT?
Only the living.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DIE?
In heaven you won’t
need
it.
In hell, you’ll have an
eternity to
practice it.
WHAT IS THE END RESULT OF
MINDFULNESS?
There isn’t one.
It’s ongoing.
WHERE IS THE
MINDFULNESS
BIBLE?
There isn’t one … but there
are twenty
thousand ‘self-help’ books with another 20,000 ready to be written.
WHY IS THAT?
Rarely does one
achieve it.
There are still
more
techniques to be
experienced.
WHAT IS THE END POINT OF
MINDFULNESS?
To eliminate the
thought of
sin and
the wrath of God of everlasting torment in hell fire.
CAN THAT EVER BE ACHIEVED?
In this life … yes.
In hell … never.
IS MINDFULNESS IN THE BIBLE?
No. The word
“mindfulness”
does not
appear in the Bible.
WHAT’S IN THE BIBLE?
The Bible says a lot
about
the “mind”.
There are 95
entries of the
word
“mind” in the scriptures.
We are to have “the
mind of the
LORD” (Lev 24:12)
God will put his
laws in
Israel’s mind Heb 8:10
God has
given Christians a sound mind 2Tim 1:7
Christians are not
to be shaken
or troubled in their minds 2Thess 2:2
Jesus said
unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with
all thy
soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great
commandment.
Matt 22:37-38
PAUL SAYS
Now I
beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye
all speak
the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you;
but that
ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in
the
same judgment. 1 Cor 1:10
And be not
conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of
your mind,
that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will
of God.
Rom 12:2
WHAT IS THE
DEFINITION OF MINDFULNESS?
Mindfulness
is the basic human ability to be fully aware of what we are and what we
are
doing, and not to be overly reactive or overwhelmed, by
what is
going on around us.
MR. THICH
NHAT HANH
There was
the recent death of a Buddhist monk who supposedly brought the concept
of
“mindfulness” to the West.
It was
supposed that he was able to be ever conscious of his mind every second
of the
day.
It was
supposed he was able to eliminate, or not over-react to stress, anxiety
and
harmful thoughts, by being aware of what’s coming into his mind and
body.
IS HE IN
HELL RIGHT NOW?
There is no
record of his ever having the Lord Jesus Christ as his Saviour.
SO HE’D BE
WELL PLACED TO PRACTICE MINDFULNESS THEN?
Yes, one
would think this would be the perfect place to do that.
HOW DOES
MINDFULNESS OVERCOME THE PAIN OF HELL FIRE?
I’m just
wondering what sort of mindfulness he is employing in hell fire?
According
to the definition of mindfulness he is working on not being overcome
with
physical and mental pain.
Burning
forever would definitely be a way of finding out the efficacy
(effectiveness)
of it.
I’m sure Mr
Hahn would be very mindful right now.
LADY WITH
PEACE
When
preaching on the footpath one day, a lady came up to me and started
telling me
of the peace she had found, in that, in controlling her thoughts
through
‘meditation’ she had a calmness in her mind and a peace. She had
mindfulness.
I said
“That’s good Madam, but what will you do with your sins? How can you
avoid the
wrath of God”
PLEASE TELL
ME … WHAT IS MINDFULNESS?
1. Mindfulness
is trying to get through life without being saved.
2. It is an
Oriental mind trick attempting to eliminate the thought of sin and the
consequences of it.
3. It is
jumping out of the 100th floor of a building and constantly
repeating
to yourself on the way down “I don’t believe in gravity.”
4. Used by
people who say “There is no God” (Psalms 14:1) and is just the
world’s way of
“getting through the night” as they say.
WHAT IS TO
HAVE GOD’S MINDEDFULNESS?
1.
Get
saved
2.
Get
a King James Bible
3.
And
be not conformed to this world: but be
ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove
what is
that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Romans 12:2
4.
Study to shew
thyself approved unto God, a
workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of
truth. 2Timothy 2:15
5.
Have
the
sound doctrine of the Apostle Paul (1 Tim 1:10; 2 Tim 4:3; Titus
1:9; Titus
2:1)
6.
Be
a follower
of Paul as he followed Christ (1Cor 11:1)

The latest self-help book on the
market is called “EMBRACING
YOUR LIMITATIONS”.
And of course, it is simply another
attempt by the world to rename sin … and should be called “EMBRACING
YOUR SINS”.
