Love Obeys, Part 1
Published 2 weeks, 5 days ago
Description
Scripture tells us those who love God are those who obey His commands. Chip poses two critical questions when we talk about obedience: What can we expect from God? and What does God expect from us? Join Chip for the answers.
Two critical questions
- What can we expect from God?
- What does God expect from us?

God’s Word rejects both extremes and hold God’s sovereignty and man’s responsibility in “biblical tension” and balance.
- Man’s responsibility -Philippians 2:12
- God’s sovereignty -Philippians 2:13
How do we “work out” what God has “worked in”?

- The purpose: Be a GODLY servant! -Philippians 2:15a
- The result: Be a BOLD servant! -Philippians 2:15b-16a
