POPULARITY
Think about the humblest person you've ever known. Don't you want to be like that? While the world boasts about pride, the Christian glories in humility. Humility is so beautiful. Pride is so ugly. But how do I get humility? Thankfully Paul answers that for us in Philippians 2:6-8. Paul has called First Church of Philippi to unity through humility. Their next question though is, How do I get humility? Paul's points the Philippians to Christ's mind. Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus (5). Think like Jesus did. A Jesus outlook would produce a Jesus outcome, a Jesus attitude would result in Jesus actions. A Jesus mind would be seen in Jesus manners. So, what did Jesus think about all the time? Look at Philippians 2:6-8.
Division is inevitable, and it seems unavoidable in our world. However, we discovered in part one of this series that Jesus was kept awake all night praying that the Church might overcome division and pursue unity. Without unity, we cannot know God fully and will not make Him fully known. The Apostle Paul echoed Jesus' prayer from John 17, and prayed a similar prayer for the Church in Ephesians 3. He prays that we might be filled with the Fullness of God, the Resurrection Presence and Power of God. In chapter 4, he makes clear that to receive this blessing we must pursue unity. Thankfully Paul gives us a practical pathway that will lead us to a place of unity with each other. He shows us the virtues we must choose and cling to in order to see our families, churches and world become more unified. He bases this pathway on the approach that Jesus took in pursuing us. In this message, we are left without excuse as to why we should choose unity and how we might achieve it. Division may be inevitable and impossible to avoid, but Unity is indeed possible with the help of God. And if we want to receive the Fullness of God, unity must be our priority.

Romans 8:1-17 NOTES-Paul isn't saying that the Law is powerless, due to any intrinsic flaw in itself, but simply that our flesh prevented the law from doing what it was intended to do.-Thankfully Paul reveals that what the Law couldn't do, Christ did on our behalf!-In vs. 5-8 Paul makes it clear that the mind set on the flesh is death, but that the mind set on the Spirit is life.-He then shows that as believers we are no longer controlled by the flesh, but rather live by the Spirit. This doesn't mean that the believer can't sin, but simply that SIN is no longer our ruler.-Verse 11 is one of the most encouraging verses in the book of Romans and maybe the whole New Testament.-A major misconception is that everyone is a "Child of God," but Paul states that only those who are led by the Spirit are "children of God."-Paul reveals that if we have the Spirit of God in us, then we are his children, and if we ARE his children, then we are also co-heirs with Christ as a result.

In Acts 26 we see two different responses to Paul's witness. While we won't likely be in Paul exact position we will certainly face both of these responses. Thankfully Paul gives us an example of how we should respond.
The temptation to compare yourself with someone else has always been part of a diverse church community. Thankfully Paul reminds us that God sees us all in the same way; simply as his children and that means we are free to be ourselves.
