                                                                                     BEWARE                                                       8-11-19
                                                                   Loose religion to find salvation
 
I       BEWARE OF DOGS                                                                                                          Philippines 3:2

1. Soul’s Salvation                                                                                                          Acts 9:1-31
2. Gospel to Jews first                                                                                                    Acts 8
3. Then to Samaritans
4. Then through Peter to Gentiles                                                                                 Acts 10
5. Opposition to Paul’s ministry                                                                                     Acts 15

 
II      BEWARE OF EVIL WORKS                                                                                               v. 2

1. Taught saved by faith plus works     

 

2. Jesus Only 

Ephesians 2:8-10  (NKJV)  ⁸ For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, ⁹ not of works, lest anyone should boast. ¹⁰ For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
Titus 3:2-7 (NKJV) ² to speak evil of no one, to be peaceable, gentle, showing all humility to all men. ³ For we ourselves were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another. ⁴ But when the kindness and the love of God our Savior toward man appeared, ⁵ not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, ⁶ whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, ⁷ that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
 
III    MUTILATION                                                                                                                v. 2

1. Paul clarifies circumcision                                                                                     v. 3

1.  Symbol of a need for a clean heart 
2. We have clean heart Jesus cleansed.

  Romans 2:25-29  (NKJV)²⁵ For circumcision is indeed profitable if you keep the law; but if you are a breaker of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision. ²⁶ Therefore, if an uncircumcised man keeps the righteous requirements of the law, will not his uncircumcision be counted as circumcision? ²⁷ And will not the physically uncircumcised, if he fulfills the law, judge you who, even with your ^[a]written code and circumcision, are a transgressor of the law? ²⁸ For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh; ²⁹ but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose ^[b]praise is not from men but from God.

 

2. Rejoice in Jesus not flesh

Philippians 1:24-25 (NKJV) ²⁴ Nevertheless to remain in the flesh is more needful for you. ²⁵ And being confident of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all for your progress and joy of faith
 
         C.  Accept Both—They Are From GOD    (by faith)
 
Hebrews 11:6 (NKJV)  But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

Hebrews 12:1-2 (NKJV) 12 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.



A. Set Priorities---“Throw off what hinders us”



1. Seek (Aim at and strive for)



Matthew 6:33 (NKJV) 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
