Philippians - Choosing Joyনমুনা
Read: Philippians 3:1-4
SOAP: Philippians 3:3
Confidence in our salvation doesn’t come from our “good works” but rather from God’s grace. Salvation is a free gift that we cannot earn; it’s not based on how good we are but rather how good God is. Don’t allow people in your life to add “works” onto your salvation. As Christians, we work unto the Lord out of gratitude and love for God, not to earn His love or our salvation. Our good works are the result of our faith in Christ, not a requirement for salvation.
