Knowing Christ Jesus (Part 1): Righteousness

Paul continues to challenge the little Philippian church to stand firm against all opposition. He now addresses a crucial topic: Righteousness. What does it mean to be in the right with God? The righteousness of God was of the utmost importance to a first century Jew. It should be of equal importance to us who are in the 21st Century. What is at stake with righteousness? Two crucial things: Peace with God, and unity in the covenant community, the Church. Do you stand in the right with God? Does the gospel you proclaim speak to how we are made right with God? Turn to Philippians 3:1-11; 4:1 and listen in.
