For if we have been joined with Him in the likeness of His death, we will certainly also be in the likeness of His resurrection.
Romans 6:5, HCSB
It is easy to grow frustrated with this world, so we identify and join in with Christ’s death and resurrection to remember that we are being used by Christ to save and renew this world. He has saved us to bring others to salvation.
with all humility and gentleness, with patience, accepting one another in love
Ephesians 4:2, HCSB
It is easy to grow frustrated with this world, but we are to help change this world with the same love, patience, and humble gentleness our God has shown us.
I preached again!
I picked up where Pastor Paul left off, quickly covering the first three verses of Philippians 3 before digging deeper into vv. 3-14.
As usual, below the video is my PowerPoint to follow along with.
Be blessed!

You also must be patient. Strengthen your hearts, because the Lord’s coming is near.
James 5:8, HCSB
It’s easy to get frustrated with this world, but when we think of God’s patience and giving people time to repent before He returns, it helps us be more patient.
Be alert, stand firm in the faith, act like a man, be strong.
1 Corinthians 16:13, HCSB
God wants to give us all good things, amd being faithful to His commands and ways brings those good things to us. Thankfully, He helps us be faithful like the Son through the indwelling Holy Spirit.
“But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you”
Matthew 5:44, HCSB
God wants to give us all good things, and that should push us to want to give goodness to others, especially those who have no love for us and Jesus.
But if we walk in the light as He Himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.
1 John 1:7, HCSB
God wants to give us all good things, and the good begins with the cleansing from sin by Christ’s blood when we repent and put our faith in Him. We also get the family of the Church and the jiy of bringing others to faith.
So we must not get tired of doing good, for we will reap at the proper time if we don’t give up.
Galatians 6:9, HCSB
God wants to give us all good things, and that includes the joy of leading others to salvation through faith in Christ. It is work He has called us to and equips us for.
