End With Grace & Glory

Philippians 4:21-23 (NLT)
21 Give my greetings to each of God’s holy people—all who belong to Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me send you their greetings. 22 And all the rest of God’s people send you greetings, too, especially those in Caesar’s household.23 May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.

Philippians 4:21 (NLT)
21 Give my greetings to each of God’s holy people—all who belong to Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me send you their greetings.

In our greetings we remind one another of our standing with God and with each other.

Philippians 2:3-4 (NLT)
3 Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. 4 Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too.

Philippians 4:22 (NLT)
22 And all the rest of God’s people send you greetings, too, especially those in Caesar’s household.

The transformational reach of the gospel is far in its breadth, as well as piercing in its depth.

Philippians 4:23 (NLT)
23 May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.

Grace is the undeserved smile of God.
 
“Nothing is more desirable than to have God propitious to us, and this is signified by grace; … for however [many] things may seem to smile on us, if God be angry, even blessing itself is turned to a curse. The very foundation then of our felicity is the favor of God…”
