In the nineteenth century PRUSSIA pulled off one of the greatest heists of all time… ok it wasn’t a heist as much as it was a mindjack…  what’s a mindjack? Well I just made up that term so make sure you quote me when you use it. But the point is Prussia needed to fund its war against France. So the kingdoms royal family pulled the first ever mindjack on its country… now a mindjack can be good or bad… this one was genius. Princess Marianne appealed to all the wealthy aristocrats to turn in their gold jewelry… thats right, bracelets, necklaces, chokers, earrings, Tierra's and all things such and have them remade in iron. The replicas would be stamped with the words “Gold Gab Ich Fure Eisen” Which stood for “I gave gold for iron”. And This gold would fund the war… and women lined up for miles to do so. 

Why? 

Because the power of perception. It was of far greater status to have iron than gold… It meant you have enough money to trade in your gold… as if you didn’t need it. And you were so important that it doesn’t matter if you wear iron, or gold. 

Bottom line: They felt so secure in who they were they didn’t need gold to define them.

 

Here is the mindjack for men to understand… the greatest attraction to other men - regarding your witness are the things you give up, not the things you have.

 

You are invited to a NFL game and you turn it down and explain to the individual that you have a praise and worship night at church on that date. To this person it makes no sense… mindjack.

You change jobs and make less money… when your previous co-workers ask you why you say because you have more time to raise your kids and get them more involved in church - mindjack. 

You are asked why your son was not at the game on Wednesday… you say “oh that is the night we have church and we believe it’s more important than sports”… mindjack

Your wife blows up at you in front of the neighbors… you walk over to her and calmly tell her how much you love her and the you are sorry for her being upset and hug her… the neighbors don’t understand why you don’t put her in her place… mindjack.

 

 

Phil.3:8More than that, I count all things as loss compared to the surpassing excellence of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ…

 

Mindjack… Paul is saying I will give up all, everything in order to make God look good. What does that say to those around me if I choose the same attitude? 

It means there must be something to this thing… Others might even think… my religion doesn’t do that for me. Maybe its more than just religion. 

 

Surpassing excellence - Gk far superior. Do you choose to live a life that exemplifies choices and goals that are far superior to what others think. Are you willing to be misunderstood making choices that the world just does not comprehend? 

I hope so… Because I believe there are men all around us who are just one mindjack away from checking out what true Christianity is.
