Solid Foundation

Good Morning!! Everything that stands needs a solid foundation. A foundation gives assurance,...a basis for confidence. The basis for most peoples’ confidence
in life, is “the flesh”. Life that is eternal, needs a foundation that is eternal,...and that is exactly what Paul has,...and what he wants for every Christian.

For it is we who are the circumcision, we who worship by the Spirit of God, who glory in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh.—Philippians 3:3 (NIV)

People are proud of their class, or ethnicity, or education, or accomplishments. That’s all “flesh”. But Christian faith is founded on Jesus Christ: his life, death, resurrection, ascension, and coming again. Paul’s confidence is entirely in Jesus.

Confidence in Christ always leads to rejoicing in Christ.
Not in our money,...or our family,...or our education,...or even our church.
Spirit of God, make us joyful Christians as we grow into Jesus-filled Christians. Amen.

"More faith, and less fear,...this is the key to worshiping in Spirit and in Truth."
