Living Worthy of the Gospel Part 3
Philippians 3-4
The book of Philippians is a letter, written by the apostle Paul, that displays his personal affection for a church he started in the city of Philippi. The book of Philippians highlights for believers what a mature man, woman, and church, who lives worthy of the Gospel, looks like.
One Who is Truly Living Life Worthy of the Gospel has the Ability to Rejoice in the Lord.
· Maturing believers rejoice in the Lord, not in their circumstances.
A change in circumstances shouldn’t be what changes the attitude of the believer.
· Maturing believers rejoice in the Lord, not in their accomplishments.
· One Who is Truly Living Life Worthy of the Gospel has the Ability to Stay Focused on the Goal.
· You are not what you used to be so don’t romanticize past celebrations.
· You are not yet what you are going to be so don’t push your future anticipations.
· You are here today so press on.
One Who is Truly Living Life Worthy of the Gospel has the Ability to Be Content.
· Finding contentment only becomes possible when we realize it is a learned behavior.
· The Gospel is a model of contentment.
