The importance of Teachers

Living for Christ so Dying is Gain

Philippians 1:21

The Church is a Foretaste of Heaven

Our worship allows us to join in the Heavenly Assembly (Heb. 12:22, Rev. 5:13, Rev. 7:9)

Our Citizenship is already secured (Phil. 3:20)

Our fellowship and unity allows and inspires us to long for Heaven (Rev. 7:9, John 13:34-35)

We share in the presence of God (Rev. 21:3, Rev 22:3, 1 Cor. 3:16-17)

How Dying is Gain

At the moment of death, Christians are relieved of all pain in this World (Luke 16:24-25)

At the moment of death, Christians will be given profound rest for our souls (Rev. 6:9-11)

At the moment of death, Christians will get to experience what it means to be at Home (2 Cor. 5:8

At the moment of death, Christians will get to be with Christ (Phil. 1:21)

Living by Faith - The Works of the Flesh

Galatians 5:19-21

We have acknowledged that we are in the midst of battle within ourselves (Gal. 5:17)

2. Our text today is an unpleasant one, but necessary to confront the reality of ourselves and the world.
