Title /Philippians 3:4?...
There are many people around us who are living a life that is useful in their own way. This is especially true of those who are helping others to help. These days, countless times a day, the 119 ambulance vehicles save lives without sparing their bodies to the accidents of others, not their own, and not considering what kind of dangerous things might happen to them. is suitable for We know and believe that one who will receive such applause for ever and ever is our Lord Jesus Christ. He generously gave up his body for the sake of the sins and dead people, and now he is able to live an abundant life in the hope of living forever. Praise the life that the Lord has made, and the saints who live for Jesus, in order to live a life of joy
First, we must forsake the fleshly things.
For us, too, many things can act as our privilege. First of all, in a faithful Christian family, going to church from motherhood, all life related to the church in the growth period, and all of them have the same educational opportunity, but continue to be educated in a school built on the foundation of Christian truth and Friends are faithful friends, and within the church, they belong to the class who actively participates in the fellowship of the department. Moreover, when it is said that there is a person who is passionately devoted to the work of God, such as hospital evangelism, orphanage visits, evangelism meetings, etc., even though he has very good conditions, if all his actions are given by his own strength without Christ, his What is really good for the soul? We know all too well that every act without Christ is in itself nothing. Therefore, in all our actions, we must first check whether we have received Christ, and then do all our actions. For to the soul without Christ, only hell is his dwelling place.
Second, believers who live for Jesus must seek only Jesus Christ.
Paul, who could boast of the things of the world, was a man who worked hard on the task entrusted to him. On the same day that he met Jesus Christ, he was on his way to Damascus to arrest those who believed in Jesus and deliver them to the council, and he was blinded by a strong light from heaven. will be. At this point, Saul (the oldest) changed the life of Paul (the lesser), and now he is not an enemy but a servant of Christ who defends Jesus.
In the Bible, many people can see how their lives changed after they met Jesus. After Zacchaeus on the mulberry tree meets Jesus, he throws out his greed and arrogance and behaves like a Christian. He said that if he extorted someone else's things, he would pay him back four times. The Samaritan woman can be seen testifying that she had met the Messiah when her life as a prostitute was pointed out. The demon-possessed man went to and fro between the tombs and lived naked. After meeting Jesus, he returned to his original life in search of modesty.
Even today, these changes are possible as long as we meet Jesus properly. “To all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God” (John 1:12-13). It is not required. It is possible if you accept Jesus immediately even now. You don't go through that good by taking tests, donating a lot, or doing good deeds diligently, you just have to accept what is given by grace.
“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith, and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God, not by works, so that no one can boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9).
