The book of Philippians primarily has a theme of joy. However, as we enter chapter 4 Paul gives us some powerful truths about the peace of God. In a time where anxiety is at an all-time high, God offers a peace that passes understanding and protects our hearts and minds. Join us today as we close out our summer series “By the Book” in Philippians chapter 4. Let’s find the missing peace God has made available and intended for us to live in.

The Philippian church was dear to the heart of the Apostle Paul. In this chapter (chapter 3) we will look at Paul’s encouragement to the church to beware of those who would entice them back into a dependence on the Mosaic law, and to value knowing Christ above all.

There was a conflict among the members in the church at Philippi. The Apostle Paul writes to the church and encourages them to be of one accord and of one mind. By using Jesus as the example, Paul lets us know that humility is the key to having corporate unity. The second chapter of Philippians also gives us a beautiful picture concerning the Incarnation of Christ. Listen and be encouraged in your faith.

Paul gives us five directives concerning the business of the Church.

There are so many voices in the world today telling you how you should talk, what you should think, and how you should conduct your daily life. Colossians 3 gives very practical ways on how to overcome the pressures of the world and live in the freedom that comes only through salvation and Christ’s sufficiency. The reality is you can either live in freedom for the glory of your Lord or be enslaved to the expectations of men, but you can’t do both. The decision is yours.

Lordship is about relationship. Legalism is about rules. Lordship is about serving Jesus out of delight. Legalism is about serving Jesus out of duty. It is important that we never place confidence in a practice rather than in the Person of Jesus. This message is about how to spot a legalist and signs and symptoms of legalism.
