“Unchaining the Gospel”

10/23/2017

0 Comments

 
Sermon Scripture:  ​Philippians 1:12-21
Picture
All of your responses to your experiences should serve to advance the gospel!

1.  Unchain the gospel by responding to Persecution with Perseverance! Verse 12-14
  • Experiences of hardship can advance the gospel but not necessarily your plan. Verse 12
  • The lost can become convinced because of your perseverance in persecution. Verse 13
  • The spiritual brothers become encouraged to boldness for Jesus! Verse 14
2.  Unchain the gospel by responding to Pride with Perspective! Verse 15-18a
  • Some preach the gospel out of envy and rivalry. Verses 15, 17
  • But not all! Some preach from goodwill!
  • Motive is relatively insignificant as long as the gospel of Christ is preached. 
3.  Unchain the gospel by Rejoice that the gospel of Christ is preached! Verses 18b-21
  • Continue rejoicing
  • Confident in eventual deliverance from circumstances
  • Eager Expectation and hope of exalting Christ in life or death!
  • Living is Christ living through you
  • Dying is gaining the end of this work and the enhancement of Your experience of the Kingdom of God!
So What?
  • Share the gospel in all of your circumstances!
  • Overcome the discouragement of persecution and pride with perseverance and perspective!
  • Rejoice in the gospel!
  • Examine your motives!

Scripture Reading:  Philippians 1:3-8

3 I thank my God every time I remember you. 4 In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy 5 because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, 6 being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.
7 It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart and, whether I am in chains or defending and confirming the gospel, all of you share in God’s grace with me. 8 God can testify how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus.

A Word From God to His Church

10/2/2017

0 Comments

 
Sermon Scripture:  Philippians 1:1-2
Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, To all God’s holy people in Christ Jesus at Philippi, together with the overseers and deacons:  Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Picture
God speaks to us through His written Word. 

1.  ​God speaks through those who are servants of God
  • servant - doulos - bondservant; wholly given to the will of another​
  • to be at someone's beck and call
  • servants job is to communicate God's will and God's message
2.  God speaks to ALL of His Holy people 
  • Who?  ALL the saints - everyone who is in Christ Jesus at Philippi
  • Application:  to ALL the saints in Christ Jesus at Riverview, including leadership
  • saints - hagios - separated in Christ Jesus, set apart for God; to be exclusively His
  • all the saints need to show up and soak up the Word of God
​ 3.  God speaks in order to bring special gifts to His church
  • ​God wants to give a gift to Riverview Baptist Church, pastor, deacons and everybody included, but you can't have a gift unless you receive it from the Giver.    
  • Grace and Peace to you from God  - you receive the gift as God unfolds it as it is read - you cannot receive the gift if you are not there when it is proclaimed
  • Grace - charis - favor of God, loving kindness
  • Peace - eirēnē -  tranquility, harmony, unity, rest, contentment
