Others Philippians 2:4

Last year we addressed going on to perfection. This year we will build upon that as we address how the life of a Christian involves others.

Topics we will address include: Various relationships we have to - Society - Government - Our Work The power of a godly example We are brethren – working together as the church “One another”

Topics we will address include: Our duty to our family Problems we face as Christians and how they affect others Evangelism – seeking to teach others Addressing some doctrinal errors as they impact our dealings with others

Others Other – someone or something that is different than you or the thing being mentioned

Others Passages Philippians 2:3-4 2 Timothy 2:2 Jude 23 Matthew 23:23 – without leaving the others undone

Others Other descriptions “One another” Fellowship – Philippians 2:1 Fellow - Romans 16:3, Ephesians 2:19 Brethren, brotherhood – 1 Peter 2:17

The Christian and Others “It’s not about me!” The Bible is clear that the life of a Christian is not one of selfishness. We do not live in a bubble Total monasticism is not the life of a Christian John 17:14-17

The Christian and Others You are a servant of Christ Galatians 2:20 2 Corinthians 5:14-15

The Christian and Others We serve others He is a God of others – John 3:16, 1 Peter 5:7 Jesus - Mark 10:45, Philippians 2:7 John 13:1-15

The Christian and Others We serve others We imitate Christ – 1 Corinthians 11:1 John 13:15 Galatians 5:13 Mark 10:42-44 Galatians 6:2

The Christian and Others The church is about others The church is a body of saints joined together for the purpose of work and worship 1 Corinthians 12:12-27 Ephesians 4:16 One who dominates without others will cause problems, cf. 3 John 9-11

The Christian and Others The Greatest Command Love God – Matthew 22: The second command – Matthew 22:39, Love your neighbor as yourself – Lev. 19:18 Romans 13:9, Galatians 5:14, James 2:8 Luke 10:29-37

The Christian and Others Do we care about others? Continued emphasis on caring for the needy – James 1:27 Galatians 2:10 1 Timothy 6:18 Luke 14:12-14

The Christian and Others Our example is about others Matthew 5:13-16 Romans 13:10 1 Peter 2:11-12, 3:15- 16

The Christian and Others Attitudes affect others Positive – love, humility, longsuffering, kindness, giving benefit of the doubt Negative – selfishness, pride, wrath, bitterness, jealousy, envy, gossip, grumpiness, etc.

The Christian and Others We are to consider how what we do affects others Even what is authorized should consider how it affects others Romans 14:7-8 1 Corinthians 8:9-13, 10:32-33

The Christian and Others Evangelism The very idea of reaching the lost is about others Mark 16:15 2 Corinthians 5: Timothy 2:2 1 Peter 3:15

We will never reach perfection without others! Do you think about others as you ought to?
