    06 Philippians 2:12-18 (The Effects of Servanthood)

    * You can get the sermon note sheet at: https://family-bible-church.org/2026Messages/26Sep27.pdf Paul had revealed to the church of Philippi that he considered himself and Timothy to be bond-slaves of Jesus Christ. As a result of this mindset, Paul was able to see that the afflictions which he was experiencing were to the benefit of the testimony of Jesus Christ ... and was therefore the preferable plan. Paul had revealed that he would much rather be in heaven with Christ, but as the bond-slave of Christ he recognized that it was more important for him to remain in the world to serve the church of Jesus Christ. * Paul then exhorted the church to take this same mindset. Last week we saw that Paul revealed to the Philippians that for them to take up the mind of Christ would require them to become selfless by placing the value and needs of others above their own desires. Indeed Jesus had modeled this for His disciples while He was on the earth. He, YHWH, took the nature of a bond-slave and came in the likeness of men in order that He might fulfill the law and redeem us through His obedience - even to the point of death on the cross. * Through this communication of Paul there has been a progression of thought in which he has artfully used various conjunctions to reveal purpose, causation, and exhortations. In our passage today, Paul is revealing three effects evidence by an individual, or church, latching onto the mind of Christ. * This message was presented by Bob Corbin on September 27, 2026 at Family Bible Church in Martinez, Georgia.

    04 Philippians 1:21-30 (Paul's Passion for the Saints)

    * In our study of Paul's letter to the church of Philippi, we have considered Paul's gratefulness for the church of Philippi and their fellowship (koinonia) in the gospel. Paul then sought to encourage them by revealing how the good news of Jesus Christ had been furthered through the afflictions and trials which he was experiencing. The Roman soldiers who were guarding him, on a rotating basis, were being exposed to, and affected by, the truth of Christ through Paul's prison testimony. Paul had been able to look beyond his circumstances to see how God was working in, and through, his life in spite of the hardships that he was experiencing. * Today, we see Paul build upon His testimony, and example, to exhort the believers in Philippi to remain unified (to maintain their oneness) in the proclamation of the gospel - even to the point of enduring persecution. Paul challenged them to live their lives "worthy of the gospel of Christ" and to understand that they were actually granted the privilege of suffering for the testimony of Jesus. Their persecution was for the furtherance of the gospel - like Paul, they would need to look beyond their own circumstances and set their eyes upon Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith! * This message was presented by Bob Corbin on September 13, 2026 at Family Bible Church in Martinez, Georgia.

    03 Philippians 1:12-21 (Paul's Prison Testimony)

    * You can get the sermon note sheet at: https://family-bible-church.org/2026Messages/26Aug30.pdf * Last week we considered Paul's prayerful desires for the church of Philippi. He sought to bless them with the grace and peace of God, he revealed his thankfulness to God for them, and shared that he asked God for their love to be ever-increasing and to be discerning. * As Paul was incredibly thankful for the Fellowship of the Gospel that he had with the Philippian church, so we will see today that he was excited about the Furtherance of the Gospel that had been wrought through his false trial and imprisonment. In Acts 21-28 we read of Paul's arrest in the Temple, subsequent trials in Caesarea, appeal unto Caesar, journey with shipwreck, and arrival in Rome. There in Rome, Paul was placed under house arrest. Acts 28:30-31 states, "Then Paul dwelt two whole years in his own rented house, and received all who came to him, 31 preaching the kingdom of God and teaching the things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ with all confidence, no one forbidding him." * Today, we consider Paul's testimony regarding how God had been using this "trial." Paul had been able to look beyond his own circumstances to see how God could use this situation to grow His Kingdom. * This message was presented by Bob Corbin on August 30, 2026 at Family Bible Church in Martinez, Georgia.

    02 Philippians 1:1-11 (Paul's Prayer for the Philippians)

    * You can get the sermon note sheet at: https://family-bible-church.org/2026Messages/26Aug23.pdf * Last week we considered the beginning of the church of Philippi and Paul's letter to them. We mentioned that this letter was written approximately only 12 years after Paul's initial visit there. * We also briefly mentioned last week the theme that runs through this letter - the call to continue in the oneness (koinonia) that they have in Christ Jesus. * Today, we begin considering this letter of encouragement and exhortation more fully by considering Paul's opening declaration of his blessing, thanksgiving and supplication for these dear believers. * This message was presented by Bob Corbin on August 23, 2026 at Family Bible Church in Martinez, Georgia.

    01 Philippians 1:1-2; Acts 16 (Introduction to Philippians)

    * You can get the sermon note sheet at: https://family-bible-church.org/2026Messages/26Aug16.pdf * Soon after Marcia and I were saved by the grace of God through Jesus Christ, we began to memorize God's Word. Through the discipleship of Woody and Della Proffitt, we were encouraged to memorize books at a time. The Lord led Marcia and I to memorize Paul's epistle to the Philippians. It quickly became clear why - as it has truly dominated my thinking for the past 42 years. Marcia and I had chosen James 1:22-25 as our life verses as a couple when we were given a new heart in Christ. But, as I memorized and meditated upon Paul's testimony and words to this church, his pursuit became my pursuit - to know Christ! For too many years, I knew about Jesus. Now, having experienced His grace and mercy, and the peace which passes understanding, I wanted to KNOW Him! * Interestingly, this is the first time that I will be teaching through this book during a morning worship service. I spent a long time teaching through it during Sunday School in 1997 and 2010. Otherwise, it has been that precious letter which God has used predominantly to help me change the way I think. * Paul's letter to the Philippians was written approximately only 12 years after his initial visit there and the planting of the church. On that visit, Paul and his companions had led Lydia and her household to Jesus, they had cast out the demon from the fortune teller slave, and they had led the Philippian jailer's family to the Lord. We are not told how long Paul and his entourage were in Philippi ... but it appears that they were there for only a couple of months at most. Acts 16:12 states "we were staying in that city for some days." And then, verse 18 states that the slave girl who was possessed with a spirit of divination pestered Paul for "many days." Paul then visited Philippi briefly a couple of years later after the riot in Ephesus (cf. Acts 20:1-6). * In this short letter, we have an exhortation for the church to remain unified in their focus on Christ and seeking to make His known to those in their sphere of influence. * Today, the goal is to consider the background and overview of the book. * This message was presented by Bob Corbin on August 16, 2026 at Family Bible Church in Martinez, Georgia.

    04 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 (The Weapons of Our Spiritual War)

    * You can get the sermon note sheet at: https://family-bible-church.org/2026Messages/26Aug09.pdf * Last week, we saw that suffering is not optional. It is an integral part of the calling to follow after Jesus. Paul tells the church, that we will be glorified together with Christ IF we have suffered with Him. But praise be to God that the sufferings of this world are not worth to be compared with the glory that will be revealed in us! * In our last week for this series, we will be considering the application of the principles we have already looked at. Now that we’ve contemplated these ideas, what do we do with them and how do we use them? * This message was presented by Justin Williams on August 9, 2026 at Family Bible Church in Martinez, Georgia.

    03 1 Peter 2:20-25 (A Principle of Suffering)

    * You can get the sermon note sheet at: https://family-bible-church.org/2026Messages/26Aug02.pdf * God is Holy, that is to say He is set apart, and He desires us to be Holy as He is. This call to Holiness begins with us acknowledging that there is no one else like Him and it plays out in our actions as we sanctify (the act of setting apart) Him in our hearts. Belonging to God, living on His terms, reserving ourselves for him, delighting in Him, and finding satisfaction is so doing. * Contentment is no easy thing. But, when we adopt a clear perspective of the life we now live in Christ, we realize there is no greater purpose or pleasure. Our call to be like Him compels us to walk in his footsteps, to be holiness to the Lord, and to suffer as He did. * This message was presented by Justin Williams on August 2, 2026 at Family Bible Church in Martinez, Georgia.

    02 Isiah 53 (The Stephen Principle)

    * You can get the sermon note sheet at: https://family-bible-church.org/2026Messages/26Jul26.pdf * Last week, we focused on an application of God's Holiness through the Sinai Principal. We followed the Israelites as they entered into the covenant with God and sawa the disasterous results of an underlying heart issue. We even compared the callous and foolish responses of the people to that of Moses, and ultimately to ourselvs. This left us with a challenge: don't try to make your life's story about you, because it's not. It is all about God. * Today, we move to another example from the same bible-study method and the one that started it all for me. This principal application rlightly belongs to an old friend who originally taught this method and this principal to me. His name is Mr. Rick McClain, and this is the Stephen Principle.
