SERMON NOTES
PHILIPPIANS Week 3
“THE WAY IS JESUS”
Philippians 2:1-2
Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind.
Philippians 2:3-4
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.
Pride is what fractures the Church.
Humility is what binds it.
DOCTRINE DESTROYS DIVISION
Philippians 2:5-8
In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death— even death on a cross!
We want resurrection power without crucifixion.
We want the life of Jesus without the way of Jesus.
Philippians 2:9-11
Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Whether you’re new or have been around for a while, this is a great opportunity to take a closer look at who we are and how to get connected.
At Vertical Up Close, you’ll meet our staff team, hear about our mission and vision, and explore next steps in spiritual growth, serving, and community. We’ll also share opportunities like discipleship groups, Bible studies, and what it looks like to become a partner of the church.
Our next Vertical Up Close is happening TODAY, April 26th, immediately following the second service. If you’ve been looking for a next step, this is a great place to start.
We’re grateful for all God is doing in and through our church and would love for you to be part of it.
