Sometimes, one word makes all the difference, and in this message from Philippians 2:12-18, that word is “therefore” because it connects what Jesus did on the cross with what we’re called to do now. Too many of us live with so much history between us and the cross that we fail to see how HIS act is relevant to OUR actions, and with one simple but powerful illustration, Paul helps us repair the rupture between what Jesus did for us and who Jesus has made us to be.
