The elephant
The goldfish
Philippians 3:1-14
Observe:
a/ ‘Finally’
b/ Watch out for the dogs
c/ Paul’s pedigree
1/ If you’re going to look back, look back at what God has done
2/ If you’re going to look ahead, look forward to new things
3/ If you feel like letting go, know that Christ is holding you
Questions:
1/ Is there anything in your life that you will sometimes trust in other than Christ (good behaviour, church attendance, Christian background, anything else)?
2/ Are there any negative past experiences that are currently holding you back from living a full life for Jesus now?
3/ How could a big, bright and beautiful vision for the future influence your living today?
