Episode: Philippians 3: No Confidence in the Flesh
Description: The Apostle Paul doesn’t mince words when he warns the Philippians against those who demand and require circumcision for Gentile believers. True circumcision, Paul reminds us, is inward, of the heart, and by the Holy Spirit. Any perceived righteousness by keeping the law Paul counts as loss and rubbish compared to the surpassing value of knowing Christ. He urges the Philippians to stand firm and rejoice in the Lord, not putting confidence in the flesh, but seeking God’s will. Paul wants to stir their hearts to imitate his pursuit of Christ above all things.
