"Partners In The Gospel" | Imitate Paul’s Walk

SCRIPTURE: 03:17-21&version=NIV" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Philippians 3:17-21

Paul expresses affection for his readers several times in chapter three of Philippians. 

"Dear brothers and sisters, join in imitating me, and keep your eyes on those who walk according to the example you have in us." Philippians 3:17 

His invitation is not prideful but reflects his personal journey with the Lord over the past few decades. Paul has faced many trials, endured much suffering, and confronted significant challenges in life. He is a bit further along the path and encourages them to follow his example and those of Timothy and Epaphroditus.

In verses 18 and 19, Paul expresses strong emotion as he warns against those who “walk as enemies of the cross of Christ.” Do not follow these people! Their minds are set on earthly things, but we are citizens of heaven, and we are eager for Him to return as our Savior.

"He will take our weak mortal bodies and change them into glorious bodies like his own, using the same power with which he will bring everything under his control." Philippians 3:21 

Be encouraged and hold on to these precious words from the Apostle Paul.
