Message Notes
2 Cor. 10:3-5, 2 Peter 1:3-8, Philippians 4:13
Phil. 4:13 “ I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me”
You can do all things through Jesus’ POWER
2 Cor. 10:3-5 “For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: for the weapons of our warfare are to carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds. Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and the bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.
Our sinful nature has been “retro-fitted” by God’s DIVINE nature.
2 Peter 1: 3-4 “His divine power has given us everything we need for a Godly life through our knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.”
He equipped us with SALVATION
2 Peter 1:5-8 “For if your possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being INEFFECTIVE and UNPRODUCTIVE in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Be effective & productive in your KNOWLEDGE of Jesus Christ.
