Fusion: week of 6/21

FAMILY THEME: TO KNOW CHRIST

Philippians 3:1-21

Nothing is more important than knowing Jesus! We can never

be good enough or do enough good things on our own, but

our goal is to know Him intimately and follow Him faithfully.

1.  Put No Confidence in Self-Righteousness

     (Philippians 3:1-7)

     We should not put our trust in a veneer of self-

     righteousness but in the genuine righteousness

     of Christ.

2.  The Lifelong Priorities of the Believer Are 

     Knowing and Pursuing Christ

     (Philippians 3:8-14)

     The focus of our faith should be entirely on Christ.

     

3.  Continue in Faith as We Await Christ's Glorious Return

     (Philippians 3:15-21)

     Having faith in Christ is a lifetime pursuit with an

     eternal reward. We need to continue to believe

     until we see Jesus.
