PHILIPPIANS 3:1

“Rejoice in the lord” - Direction Location

REJOICE IN THE ONE THING THAT IS UNMOVABLE

WE DON’T NEED OUR CIRCUMSTANCES TO CHANGE. WE NEED TO LEAN INTO THE ONE THAT'S WITH US IN THE CIRCUMSTANCE

“safeguard” (Guard rails of life) the Wisdom and Word of God

THE WORD OF GOD IS A SAFEGUARD FOR OUR LIFE AND MIND AND HEARTS.

PHILIPPIANS 3:2-3

PAUL SAYS BEWARE OF - DOGS, EVIL MEN, FALSE CIRCUMCISION

EPHESIANS 2:8-9 8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—9 not by works, so that no one can boast.

GALATIANS 3:1-5 3 You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified. 2 I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by believing what you heard? 3 Are you so foolish? After beginning by means of the Spirit, are you now trying to finish by means of the flesh?[a] 4 Have you experienced[b] so much in vain—if it really was in vain? 5 So again I ask, does God give you his Spirit and work miracles among you by the works of the law, or by your believing what you heard?

GALATIANS 1:6-8 6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel— 7 which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse!

GALATIANS 1:9 As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let them be under God’s curse!

FALSE TEACHING LEADS TO FALSE BELIEVING. AND FALSE BELIEVING LEADS TO BAD DECISIONS. AND BAD DECISIONS LEAD TO CRASHES IN LIFE

PHILIPPIANS 3:4-9

THERE IS JOY FOUND IN BELIEVING
