Holy Spirit Eyes look at Godly Examples

Philippians 3:17“Brothers and sisters, imitate me, and pay

attention to those who live by the example we have

given you.”

Run a racePhilippians 3:12-14

“It’s not that I’ve already reached the goal or have already completed the course. But I run

to win that which Jesus Christ has already won for me. Brothers and sisters, I can’t consider myself a winner yet. This is what I do: I don’t

look back, I lengthen my stride, and I run straight toward the goal to win the prize that

God’s heavenly call offers in Christ Jesus.”

Looking at a negative exampleRomans 16:17

“Brothers and sisters, I urge you to watch out for those people who

create divisions and who make others fall away from the Christian faith by

teaching doctrine that is not the same as you have learned. Stay away from

them.”

Surrounded by negative examplesPhilippians 3:18-19

“I have often told you, and tow tell you with tears in my eyes, that many live as

the enemies of the cross of Christ. In the end they will be destroyed. Their own emotions are their god, and they take

pride in the shameful things they do. Their minds are set on worldly things.”

Remember who you arePhilippians 3:20-21

“We, however, are citizens of heaven. We look forward to the Lord Jesus Christ coming from heaven as our Savior.

Through His power to bring everything under His authority, He will change our humble bodies and make them like His

glorified body.”

Proper credentials to follow1 Corinthians 11:1

“Imitate me asI imitate Christ.”

Danger of a neutral example1 Corinthians 4:15-17

“You may have countless Christian guardians, but you don’t have many spiritual fathers. I became your father in the Christian life by telling you the

Good News about Christ Jesus. So I encourage you to imitate me. That’s why I’ve sent Timothy to you to help you remember my Christian way of life as I teach it everywhere in every church. Timothy is my dear child, and he faithfully does the Lord’s work.”

Be an example God can useMatthew 5:16

“In the same way let your light shine in front of people. Then

they will see the good that you do and praise your Father in

heaven.”
