KNOWING JESUS CHRIST and The POWER of His RESSURECTION was Apostle Paul’s chief ambition and pursuit; something for which he was willing to give his all (Philippians 3:10,11)
What was it about these that made Paul both desperate for it and effective in it?
¶ KNOWING JESUS CHRIST is all about our experiencing and appropriating the benefits of the Cross: redemption, justification, restoration, healing and the hope of glory. Eternal life is to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you sent (John 17:3)
¶ THE POWER OF HIS RESSURECTION is experiencing and appropriating the benefits of Pentecost: power, renewal, glory, victory over sin, the flesh and satan. “If the Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from death, lives in you, He will also give life to your mortal bodies” (Romans 8:11)
Knowing Jesus Christ gives us the benefits of salvation. Knowing The Holy Spirit empowers us to fulfil the responsibilities of our redemption.
