Philippians 4:1 - 9
Sacrifice - Trusting in God
We need to trust the Lord. We can get overwhelemed by the World's messages.
The crown - Not stuff. Not achievement. But people who have come to know Jesus as Lord and Saviour.
vs 2
Disagreement and division.
We need to do conflict resolution.
Gr. Skandalus 'Offence;
Conflict in the Body of Christ
A deceptive trap - Skandalus 'Offense'
- A bait of Satan
Holds the bait
Offense is a tool of the Devil to bring people into captivity.
Offense is usually due to pride.
Pride keeps people from seeing the truth.
The heart condition is hidden from you, but not from God.
He who cannot forgive another breaks the bridge over which he must pass himself.
We need to forgive.
vs 3
Help those who are in confict.
Grace is amazing!

Remember that Jesus is coming back
Don't worry about anything (reject fear)
