The Christian Pattern

0 Amens

Amen

Enemies of the Cross
  • Join with others in following my example, brothers, and take note of those who live according to the pattern we gave you.
  • For, as I have often told you before and now say again even with tears, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ.
  • Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach, and their glory is in their shame.
  • Their mind is on earthly things.

Citizens of the Cross
  • But our citizenship is in heaven.
  • And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ
  • Who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control
  • Will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.
Friends of the Cross
  • Therefore, my brothers, you whom I love and long for
  • My joy and crown
  • That is how you should stand firm in the Lord, dear friends!
