The Continuation of Joy

Philippians 4:21-23

The Greetings of the Church

“Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me greet you. All the saints greet you, especially those of Caesar’s household. (v21-22)

“Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ greet you.” (Romans 16:16)

It is the job of each believer in Christ to seek to interact with, connect to and be unified with each and every other believer in Christ.

Practical participation:  Greet all the saints in the unity of the Lord.

The Grace of the Lord

“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.” (v23)

“and the grace of our Lord overflowed for me with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.” (1 Timothy 1:14)

“. . . the Lord on the night when he was betrayed took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, ‘This is my body, which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.’ In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, saying, ‘This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.’ For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.”
(1 Corinthians 11:23-26)

We are commanded to remind each other of the grace of Jesus, as we join together, and share in the unity of the Lord’s table.

Practical participation:  Remind all the saints of the grace of the Lord.
