Philippians 4 | Joy in Christ In All Circumstances

The Philippian church faced trails and persecution just like the church now. Surprisingly, Paul admonishes us to dwell on what is true, good, and beautiful, making merry and enjoying contentment in all circumstances. How is this possible? Purely through Christ. This chapter is a practical guide to joyful Christian living.

Philippians 3 | The Gospel Against False Teaching | Joy in Christ

After teaching us to have the mindset of Christ, Paul turns his focus against false teaching, using strong language to point out that the Jews who rejected Christ were in error. He contrasts circumcision of the heart with the outward ceremony of Judaism. Pastor Dan applies this principle to point out that all religions that reject Christ are anti-christ. The problem with Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Marxism, et al is theological not racial. Repent and believe the gospel! Christ is Lord!
