'Mind' in the Bible

We were, by nature, children [under the sentence] of [God’s] wrath, just like the rest [of mankind].

with all humility [forsaking self-righteousness], and gentleness [maintaining self-control], with patience, bearing with one another in [unselfish] love.
and be continually renewed in the spirit of your mind [having a fresh, untarnished mental and spiritual attitude],
