Addressing the congregation of Philippi, Paul instructed believers to "work out their salvation with fear and trembling."

Does Paul mean to say that believers are to labor to gain God's favor in the forgiveness of their sins?

No, but the fact is that we are to be active participants in the process - find out what that means and more in part five of our series on Paul's letter to the church at Philippi.

Christian's are called to selfless living for the sake of the gospel we carry and a world full of people who need to hear it.

The Apostle Paul used the extraordinary model of the attitude of Christ to set the bar high and his own example of ministry in the name of the Lord as well to convey the importance of being selfless. But he also used the examples of two ordinary men to inspire the rest of us that it is certainly possible in Christ to be more concerned with others needs than with our own.

Join us today as we unpack this loaded section of Paul's letter to the believers at Philippi...

In the third chapter of Paul's letter to the Philippians, the Apostle Paul addressed the all important subject of Christ-likeness. It is God's intention to conform every person of faith in Jesus into His likeness.

What does that mean?

In today's message that question is addressed along with the important and often overlooked duty of believers to safeguard their faith.

The ideal progression for our Christian faith is modeled well for us in the life of Paul the Apostle. In fact, in the New Testament we have no more complete a biography of a follower of Christ than the one we have of his Paul's life.

What does the ideal progression of our faith in Christ look like as we strive for Christ-likeness? What must we lose in order to gain Christ and what can we keep? Must knowing and fellowshipping with the Lord be the main desire of our hearts?

These questions and more are addressed in today's sermon - join us and listen...
