Book Cover & Preview Text
The person of Jesus aka the man from Nazareth is portrayed in Scripture as both perfect and exceptional. I use the term man not as a manner of disrespect to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords but as a symbol of His act of laying aside His divinity and walking in humanity as the “Last Adam.” Jesus willingly laid down His life as the sacrificial lamb (John 1:29; 1Cor. 15:45-48; Phil. 2:5-8, NIV). The character trait which sets Jesus apart from other influencers is He spoke with authority, i.e., mastery, or delegated influence (Strong). He repeatedly affirmed He did not speak of His authority but the Father’s authority who does the work through Him (John 14:10, NLT). His excellence and mastery in framing words and teachings are limitless, timeless, and inexhaustible. Even so much so John stated in John 21:25, “Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written” (NIV). And yet, Jesus who was veiled in the blessings of the Abrahamic covenant turned to his disciples and stated, “Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father” (John 14:12, NIV). What an astounding and mind-boggling declaration for followers of Christ.

About the Book
Scripture portrays Jesus as both perfect and exceptional in character. Born into humble beginnings, he showed the power of words and their ability to speak things which aren’t as though they already existed. His mission was to transform the world with words. He demonstrated his perfection in framing words throughout his earthly ministry, and he’s the prime example of how to live a victorious life and invoke mastery over Satan by confession of faith. In Adopt the Jesus Mindset, author M. R. Roberson explores the key principles that Christians must embrace to espouse the same attitude as Jesus. Through a host of scriptural examples, he encourages followers of Christ to strive for mastery and excellence in pronouncing only what the father has spoken in their regard, thereby demonstrating Bible faith. Adopt the Jesus Mindset offers a motivational, self-help guide to victorious living, inspiring believers to embrace the mindset of Jesus in becoming imitators of God.
