Philippians 3:12-21

A review of last week:

  • Paul reminds us to give up the pursuit of self-righteousness, and lay hold of true righteousness.

My Notes


Paul uses an analogy of a race:

  • We are to be intentional about our Christian life, like an athlete in training.

My Notes


The Philippians can follow Paul’s example, or the example of other folks who Paul warns about.

  • Paul’s theology is based on the Old Testament and Christ as revealed to him.

  • The other folk’s theology is based on themselves or a misuse of the Old Testament.
    Who are we going to listen to?

My Notes


Live your Christian life intentionally:

  • Don’t casually cross the finish line, but crash through it!
