Paul's final greeting reminds us that he never worked alone and incites us to lock arms with our brothers and sisters in prayer, encouragement, support, etc. as we seek to follow in his footsteps of taking the gospel to a lost and dying world.

As sinners who have been reconciled to God by the work of Christ, we must consistently pray for and engage in the mission that Christ has sent us to fulfill.

Christ's new creation is made up of people who are devoted to consistent prayer as they joyfully look forward to His return.

Since Jesus is the Head of the church, as the one who died for her, all Christians are to serve Christ as Lord. Therefore, both Christian slaves and masters are to submit first and foremost to Jesus and live their lives in a Christ-honoring way, always looking ahead to their final reward.

Christians respond to God's gracious act of sending Jesus to the cross by worshipping Him in every aspect of our lives.

King Jesus is God's answer to the mass rebellion of humanity and chaos on the earth. Those who worship King Jesus will be blessed for all eternity while those who reject Him as King will suffer eternal wrath.

One f the reasons Jesus was born was to come and fulfill the biblical role of priest for His people. As our Great High Priest, Jesus is the only one who can truly make provision for sinners like us to come into the presence of our sinless heavenly Father and worship Him for all eternity.

God desires to communicate with his people, and so he has raised up prophets to mediate between sinners and himself. Jesus Christ is God's promised ultimate Prophet.
