Greek Concepts

φρονέω (phroneo)

mindset, frame of mind, attitude


The Greek concept of φρονέω (phroneō) encompasses the frame of mind, mental attitude, and mindset. It is not about individual thoughts, as much as the entire mental approach to all of life. Our reaction to every circumstance we encounter reveals our mental attitude. The Bible teaches that a humble frame of mind is the key component to genuine fellowship. Additionally, it describes Spiritual maturity as functioning with the mindset of Christ.
