'Attitude' in the Bible

It is he who will go as a forerunner before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers back to the children, and the disobedient to the attitude of the righteous, so as to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.”

“If anyone comes to Me, and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life [in the sense of indifference to or relative disregard for them in comparison with his attitude toward God]—he cannot be My disciple.

just as it is written [in Scripture],“God gave them a spirit of stupor,Eyes that do not see and ears that do not hear,[a spiritual apathy that has continued] to this very day.”

And do not be conformed to this world [any longer with its superficial values and customs], but be transformed and progressively changed [as you mature spiritually] by the renewing of your mind [focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His plan and purpose for you].

Bless those who persecute you [who cause you harm or hardship]; bless and do not curse [them].

For I, though absent [from you] in body but present in spirit, have already passed judgment on him who has committed this [act], as if I were present.

For this was my purpose in writing, to see if you would stand the test, whether you are obedient and committed to following my instruction in all things.

What, then, happened to your positive attitude? For I testify that if it had been possible, you would have torn out your eyes and given them to me.

to be renewed in your mental attitude,

Serve with a good attitude, as to the Lord and not to men,

then fill me with joy by having the same attitude, sharing the same love, being united in spirit, and keeping one purpose in mind.

Make your own attitude that of Christ Jesus,

Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, have this attitude; and if in anything you have a different attitude, God will reveal that also to you;

I urge Euodia and Syntyche to have the same attitude in the Lord.

Let your gracious attitude be known to all people. The Lord is near:

You who were once alienated with a hostile attitude, doing evil,

Devote yourselves to prayer, keeping alert in it with an attitude of thanksgiving;

My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism.

So, since Christ suffered in the flesh, you also arm yourselves with the same attitude, because the one who has suffered in the flesh has finished with sin,

Those whom I [dearly and tenderly] love, I rebuke and discipline [showing them their faults and instructing them]; so be enthusiastic and repent [change your inner self—your old way of thinking, your sinful behavior—seek God’s will].
