Knowing Christ and Being Like Him

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: Knowing Christ and Being Like Him

(Philippians 3:10-11)

Someone has wisely pointed out, “One of the most dangerous forms of human error is forgetting what one is trying to achieve"

That is especially true in the Christian life. It’s easy to get sidetracked. We need to be clear and focused at all times on what it is we’re after.

What is the goal of the Christian life? If we forget it, we’re not likely to achieve it. It can be stated in several forms, but in our text, the apostle Paul nicely sums up what we’re supposed to be aiming at:

The goal of the Christian life is to know Christ and to be like Him.

That’s it, isn’t it! Christianity is definitely nota religion of rules and rituals that we must work at keeping in order to climb the ladder to heaven. Rather, it is a personal, growing relationship with the risen, living Lord Jesus Christ that results in our growing conformity to Him. Our goal is to know Him and to become like Him.

LET US PRAY
In Jesus Name, you will not die a spiritual death
