Week of June 12, 2022

When you focus on what you lack, you lose what you have. But when you focus on Christ you gain more than you have. Ironically if you focus on past positive or Christian achievements instead of what you need from Christ, you also lose what you have. But when you focus on Christ, you gain more than you ever had. So let’s focus on Christ this Sunday. His power. His suffering. His resurrection. Such a focus will release us from previous hurts or previous successes so that we might become more and more like Christ. This progress comes from his spirit and growing our relationship with Christ. A backward focus hurts us. A current focus on Christ and what he is leading us to do in the future results in more maturity. Maturity is not focusing upon Christ’s power and miracles, but focusing upon our relationship with him. That I may know him will proceed knowing the power of his resurrection. If we put his power before our relationship with Christ, we hinder in our growth in Christ. So let’s grow in Christ this Sunday.

Growing In Christ

June 12, 2022 / Pastor Dennis Beatty / Philippians 3:10-14

How do you become more and more like Christ? You must …

Know Him

His power

That I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection. Philippians 3:10a

His suffering

And the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death. Philippians 3:10b

His resurrection

In order that I may attain to the resurrection from the dead. Philippians 3:11

Pursue Him

Unhindered by the past

Not that I have already obtained it, or have already become perfect, but I press on in order that I may lay hold of that for which also I was laid hold of by Christ Jesus. Brethren, I do not regard myself as having laid hold of it yet. Philippians 3:12-13a

Unsatisfied with the present

But one thing I do; forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead. Philippians 3:13b

Challenged by the call

I press onward toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:14
