God’s gift to all His true followers - is PEACE. BOND of Peace; PRAYER of Peace; GOD of Peace.

Sincere followers of Christ pursue the prize of God’s heavenly call. Looking Forward; Growing Tall; Standing Firm.

We can only have one - #1 Priority. Jesus Plus Nothing Else; Jesus Over Everything Else; Jesus In Everything Else.

A person becomes a pillar by choosing to become selfless. Put Others Ahead of Self; Put Christ Ahead of Self.

Successfully following Christ involves “doing” certain things. We Are to Work; God is Our Fuel; Joy is Our Pay.

The most foreign characteristic we develop is “giving” instead of “getting”. Submission To Christ; Simulation of Christ; Supportive of Others.

Being persecuted for sharing Christ is a good thing! Let’s Remain Focused (1:20-26); Let’s Remain Unified (1:27); Let’s Remain Courageous (1:28-30). 

Sharing Christ with others is what we want to be about. Sharing Christ Is Often Painful; Sharing Christ Is Our Priority; Sharing Christ Is Our Perfection.
