⭕️ CIRCLES - Embrace The Square Life – Bro. Philip Laurence Thomas

from One Man Sharpens Another

🗡🛡 GOD'S WORD -‭‭ ‭‭‭‭James‬ ‭4‬:‭4‬ ‭NLT‬‬“You adulterers! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God? I say it again: If you want to be a friend of the world, you make yourself an enemy of God.”⚔️ As human beings, we don't like being rejected or outcast, because our Heavenly Father made us social creatures, so we need to know where we fit and where we belong.The problem is that our sinful nature is willing to do just about anything to fit in, be cool, or find a sense of belonging. And, the other problem is that we may be running in sinful circles.Now we have Jesus Christ and His followers calling people out of the circles of the world to their circle of righteousness, by telling every soul of mankind that will listen, that the circle of the world is sinful and will be judged by God. And, saying that, to fit in and belong to God's circle, is to belong to something far better, greater, higher, or more rewarding than this world's circle.So, let’s embrace the “Square Life.”TAKEAWAYSWe are social creatures and need fellowship.Belonging to the right circles is crucial for spiritual growth.Embracing the square life means not fitting into worldly circles.God calls us out of the world's circles into His kingdom.Being lukewarm is not acceptable to God.The Potter shapes us into vessels for His purpose.We are valuable and precious in God's eyes.The world is skilled at making bad things look appealing.Our identity is found in Christ, not in worldly acceptance.CHAPTERS00:00 Introduction and Morning Greetings00:00 Living the Word of God01:22 The Importance of Faith and Maturity04:39 Circles: Finding Where We Belong07:33 Embracing the Square Life10:30 The Conflict Between Worldly and Godly Circles13:25 The Potter and the Clay: God’s Work in Us24:17 Embracing the Call to Spiritual Growth27:13 The Battle Against Sin and Spiritual Warfare30:09 Building God's Kingdom: The Square Life35:28 The Gift of Salvation and Eternal Life40:18 Choosing Between Circles: The World vs. God's KingdomBEHIND THE SCENES VIDEO⭕️ CIRCLES - Embrace The Square Life – Bro.

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
