Realize Everyday, For Our Redemption Messiah's Acceptance Truly Imparts Omnipotent Nurture! (R.E.F.O.R.M.A.T.I.O.N)

By Ramesh C.Reddy
Pittsburgh Standard


Aug 15, 2009

Editors Note: The devotional has a background song called 'All in All', which can be heard if you use Internet Explorer.

SCRIPTURE:
 
“Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord! It is no trouble for me to write the same things to you again, and it is a safeguard for you. Watch out for those dogs, those men who do evil, those mutilators of the flesh. For it is we who are the circumcision, we who worship by the Spirit of God, who glory in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh-- though I myself have reasons for such confidence.” (Philippians 3:1-4)

OBSERVATIONS:
I asked myself what were the Philippians asked to do?
1.
Rejoice in the Lord!
2.
Watch out for those dogs.
3.
Watch out for those men who do evil.
4.
Watch out for those mutilators of the flesh.

INTERPRETATION:
I asked myself why is it significant that Paul asks the Philippians to rejoice in the Lord and writes the same things?
 I found it so awesome that Paul is able to talk about rejoicing in the Lord amidst what he is going through and keeps reminding them of the same things for their spiritual well being. This shows me Paul’s relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ evidenced by his own actions. What is more exciting is that he wants the Philippians to rejoice in the Lord and turn to the Lord no matter what is happening.

Even as he writes to them to rejoice in the Lord, he exhorts them with 3 interesting “Watch Outs”

INTERPRETATION:
I asked myself why Paul would say to watch out for those dogs?
In the context of the passage, he is definitely not talking about domestic animals. Yet, he uses dogs in his language. What came to my mind is the sign “Beware of the dog/s” that people have near their houses.  They have the sign because the dogs can attack people if they see them. Once they attack, they can severely injure the victim. It is possible that the victim can die too because of the attack of the dog. The victim can be severely mutilated too because of the attack.

When I thought about Paul’s warning in that context, it occurred to me that Paul is warning the Philippians of those people who would attack them with all kinds of heretical and dangerous theology that is not even Scriptural. If they put themselves in that position, it is very well possible that they could be severely injured spiritually to the point of spiritual death. Paul wants them to be very cautious if he is going to use a metaphor like that. Attacking a person spiritually can be evil if it is done in a manipulative and heretical way.

Paul addresses the fact that there are those men that do evil. I believe the evil lies in the theology that they try to get across to the people to kill spiritually.  Paul wants them to be aware of that to the point that he mentions there are those that are mutilators of the flesh.

I asked myself what does Paul mean by mutilators of the flesh?
What came to my mind is circumcision. It appears Paul is telling the Philippians to beware of those who are putting an emphasis on physical circumcision to be right with God. I thought about that because in the next verses Paul writes to the Philippians:

“For it is we who are the circumcision, we who worship by the Spirit of God, who glory in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh-- though I myself have reasons for such confidence.” (Philippians 3:3-4)

OBSERVATION/INTERPRETATION:
I asked myself how is it that we are the circumcision?
Paul is letting the Philippians know that they are the true circumcision, not because they have a physical circumcision but because of a Spiritual circumcision in their lives. He gives them evidence to know how they are the circumcision regardless of what others were proclaiming by stating 3 important points: 

1.
We who worship by the Spirit of God
2.
We who glory in Christ Jesus
3.
We who put no confidence in the flesh

I asked myself the significance of Paul mentioning 'we who are the circumcision?'
What came to my mind is that a person being physically circumcised will not make them right with God unless they are spiritually circumcised in Christ Jesus. Paul wanted the Philippians to beware of those who were putting all the emphasis on law over grace. Paul does not want the emphasis to be on what human beings can do to save themselves.

I asked myself the significance of the three examples?
Some try to save themselves by worshiping God but I feel Paul is saying that will not be enough to save them too if the worship is not by the Spirit of God. It won’t matter how many times people worship if there worship is not done with the Spirit of God residing in them. For that to happen, Paul reminds them that it is those who glory in Christ.  What came to my mind is those who live for Christ and have their excitement in Christ. It is those who put their emphasis on Jesus to help them in their walk of life and not being confident of what they accomplish in the flesh who will be spiritually circumcised and saved.

I asked myself what example does Paul use to emphasize 'who put no confidence in the flesh?'

To make his point, Paul uses himself as an example:
“If anyone else thinks he has reasons to put confidence in the flesh, I have more: circumcised on the eighth day, of the people of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; in regard to the law, a Pharisee; as for zeal, persecuting the church; as for legalistic righteousness, faultless.” (Philippians 3:5-6)

I asked myself what 7 points does Paul make to show his confidence in the flesh was to no avail?
He lets the Philippians know that he had all these things going in his favor but none of them were enough to save him:
1. Being
circumcised on the eight day was not enough!
2. Being
of the people of Israel was not enough!
3. Being
of the tribe of Benjamin was not enough!
4. Being
a Hebrew of Hebrews was not enough!
5. Being
a Pharisee in regard to the law was not enough!
6. Being zealous and
persecuting the church was not enough!
7. Being
faultless because of legalistic righteousness was not enough!

I asked myself, why was none of that enough for Paul?
Because everything above had to do with what Paul did and who he was in his flesh. He knew that was not going to save him. Yet, it is in this direction that Paul feels that there are those people that will try to lead the Philippians astray. He wants them to be careful and points them to Christ over their flesh.

I asked myself what 7 evidences does Paul give to point them to Christ over the flesh?
This is evidenced by the next verses I learned about:

 ”But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ--the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith. I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead.” (Philippians 3:7-11)

The answer is Jesus Christ for Paul: 
1. Whatever was to my profit I consider loss for the SAKE OF Christ!
2. Consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of KNOWING Christ Jesus my Lord!
3. I consider everything rubbish that I may GAIN Christ!
4. I consider everything rubbish that I may be FOUND in Christ!
5. Finding the righteousness not from the law but through FAITH in Christ!
6. I want to know the POWER of Christ’s resurrection.
7. I want to know the FELLOWSHIP of sharing in Christ's sufferings becoming like Him in his death to attain the resurrection from the dead.

IMPLICATIONS:
I saw important implications for my own life. As I studied these verses what came to my mind is it does not matter if I worship daily, if I am part of a Christian family, if I know the Bible from front to back, and how much zeal I have if I do not KNOW JESUS CHRIST personally. I can only come to know Jesus Christ personally when I acknowledge why Jesus had to die for me on the Cross of Redemption realizing:

1. My worship will not save me!
2. Being raised in a Christian family will not save me!
3. Knowing Scripture from front to back will not save me!
4. My religious zeal will not save me!

All these things may make people look pious and religious but it will not SAVE them apart from KNOWING Jesus Christ, GAINING Jesus Christ, being FOUND in Jesus Christ, and most of all having a RIGHTEOUSNESS that does not come from the law but through faith in Jesus Christ that comes from God. God is endorsing Jesus Christ for our Salvation. This is the only way we can be saved by the reformation that occurs in our lives because of Christ deciding to "die a death we should have deserved and giving us a treatment, He should have deserved." (Gospel Christianity, Why Jesus Had To Die?)

HOW GOSPEL GIVES ME TESTIMONY REGARDING REFORMATION:
For reformation to occur in my life, "an atonement had to happen incorporating five things to be understood in light of the cross of Christ: SACRIFICE, DEBT, BATTLE, RIGHTEOUSNESS, and LAW." (Gospel Christianity)  As I thought about today's study regarding circumcision, I realized reformation of my life in Christ can only happen as these points are understood as a transaction of the cross.

'Why God cannot just forgive us no matter what we do and why Jesus had to die for forgiveness to happen?'

I like to call that the DEBT OF ATONEMENT for the CREDIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS as a  TRANSACTION of the CROSS OF CHRIST.

I felt I needed to share that about the TRANSACTION OF THE CROSS OF CHRIST, as we discussed the question above but ran out of time so I told Kristen, Josh, Vicki, Bryan, Lydia, and Cathy that I will share with them after the study. I get to share it with you all too at the same time because it fit well with today's devotional I am having. The link for what I wanted to share is below:
"Why the DEBT OF ATONEMENT for the CREDIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS had to happen as a TRANSACTION of the CROSS of CHRIST?

Through the Gospel Christianity study and my study of the Book of Philippians until now points me to the fact that everything about the REFORMATION, hinges on Christ alone for the ATONEMENT of my sins!

It is Christ's atonement as a transaction of the cross which provides me JUSTIFICATION, PONTIFICATION, SANCTIFICATION, and finally GLORIFICATION as I place my faith in Christ to attain His righteousness, knowing Christ, gaining Christ, and being found in Christ for my spiritual circumcision.

As Paul addressed circumcision and who he was, he was making the Philippians see the importance of the reformation that occurs in our lives through Christ. He wanted the Philippians to grasp that they will not be saved through circumcision of the flesh, through ethnicity, through religion, through family status, through religious worship, through the law, etc. The only way for spiritual circumcision for reformation of our own lives too would happen only if we understand that Salvation comes through grace by faith in Jesus Christ and not by our own works.

I ask you now dear friends, why for reformation you need the transaction of the cross?
Studying this passage made me think of the 5 S's of the Reformation:
1. ‘Sola Scriptura’ - By Scripture Alone
2. ‘Sola Gratia’ - By Grace Alone
3. ‘Solo Christo’ - By Christ Alone
4. ‘Sola Fide’ - By Faith Alone
5. ‘Soli Deo Gloria’ - Glory To God Alone
all occurring because of the transaction of the cross for our sake.

It is especially exciting to know that even though aul was in prison, he was still emphasizing Salvation through faith in Christ Jesus to the Philippians over the theology of works!
 
Friend, my Salvation in Christ is based upon the gift of grace I have received from Jesus. It is a free gift offered to me by Jesus Christ so I can be set free from the power of sin and death. All I have to do is receive Jesus into my life and make Him the Lord of my life. You can too!

“For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ.” (Romans 6:23)

When I acknowledge Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior letting Him know what a sinner I have been, confess and repent of my sins to the Lord and turn to Him for His cleansing blood to cleanse me of all my unrighteousness, I have received the free gift of Salvation through faith that Jesus Christ offers apart from the law.

I am saved to the bone not because of any works I have done but because of what Jesus Christ already did on the cross. It is Christ Alone that saves me and nothing I have done or do can save me apart from Christ.

That does not mean that I go on living my life in a hedonistic way because once I come to Christ and receive His forgiveness, He sends His Holy Spirit to reside in me. As I yield to Christ, He will work in me and through me. Now the good works that come out of me will be seen as good from the Lord because I am not doing it in my own flesh but the Spirit of God working in me and through me. It is grace that saves me and the works reveal to others that I am saved. The works are a fruit of my Salvation rather than working to attain Salvation or a means of Salvation.

This does not mean I will never sin because I will if I yield to my own flesh.

For the Word says,
"Live by the Spirit and you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh."

I hope your concept of being saved is not based on how many times you go to worship the Lord, how many times you pray, how many times you read the Bible, how many times you take Communion, and if your family is a Christian, etc.

None of that can save us and reform us to be what Christ wants us to be if Jesus Alone is not the reason for our Salvation. None of what we do can give us brownie points apart from Jesus Christ being our Lord and Savior!

In summary, studying this passage made me think of the 5 S's of the Reformation:
1. ‘Sola Scriptura’ - By Scripture Alone
2. ‘Sola Gratia’ - By Grace Alone
3. ‘Solo Christo’ - By Christ Alone
4. ‘Sola Fide’ - By Faith Alone
5. ‘Soli Deo Gloria’ - Glory To God Alone

May we all reform our own thinking on how to be saved by remembering that Scripture alone, Grace alone, Christ alone, Faith alone, and all done to the Glory to God alone WILL save us as a transaction of the cross occurred for our sake.

PRAYER:
Dear Jesus, I want to thank you for dying for my sins and coming back to life to save me as you love me so much. Your love is what has imparted to us your free gift of grace to be saved. Lord Jesus, you alone can save us and not anything we do or others do for us will save us. So Lord help us to always seek you and know from your grace alone that comes through faith alone in you is the only way we can be saved according to your Scripture alone to the Glory of God, our Heavenly Father. No matter what we do whether it is worshipping you, praying to you, reading your Word, taking communion, etc let it be because we love you and are excited to fellowship with you and remember what you have done for us. May they not be for the sole reason of being saved because we cannot save ourselves by anything we do but only by your grace!

So we thank you for your grace to help us win the race for you are our ultimate Ace! Jesus, as we give our life to you, we ask you to fill us with your Holy Spirit and guide us so that the good works we do will be the fruit of righteousness as our relationship with you. They will know we are Christians by our love shown by the fruit you display of our lives.  Help us Lord. Thank you for your cleansing blood that cleanses us from all unrighteousness. Thank you for saving us as we turn to you for you give us a promise in Scripture alone saying, “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” I claim this promise from Acts 4:12. Help us to live for you and serve you Lord. Thank you for hearing us and answering our prayers. Thank you for all that I have learned from your Word. Help me to put it to practice. In Your Name I Pray Jesus! Amen!

May you experience the POWER OF CHRIST'S RESURRECTION this day, and give Him the LOCKED areas of your life too so you can experience His PEACE as you become an ACTOR in the film called LIFE being directed by your DIRECTOR, JESUS CHRIST who comes to give JOY and PEACE.

You don't have to be locked away anymore for Christ is here to free you and give you peace to LIVE out your actions.

How do you look at GODISNOWHERE?

One of my pastors, Pastor Hugo SHARED this example one Sunday at the RESURRECTION DAY SERVICE in the combined worship service of Pittsburgh Chinese Church-Oakland & Oakland International Fellowship:

If you look at it as GOD IS NO WHERE, you will still be lost in your sin and be in bondage locked away in your sins and problems finding no peace.

But  as my pastor spoke to the congregation and spoke to me, I am here to tell you that GOD IS NOW HERE.

Yes, friend God is aLIVE and wants to bring a transformation in your life through the GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ for He paid the penalty on the cross to rescue you and me and came back to life to save us and LIVE with us.

Yes, friend that is exciting to know that we can experience HIS SAVING GRACE & LIVING GRACE.

When we mess up, we can go to Jesus with our shortcomings and He will forgive us and RESTORE us to Him and we will find peace in Him.

"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 6:23, NIV)

"But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness." (1 John 1:7-9, NIV)

Friend, we need Jesus because we have been separated from God due to our sin. Because of our sin, Jesus had to pay the price to become our bridge so we can reach God now not of our own good works but because of the finished work of Christ, the Lord on the cross.

"For it is by GRACE you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9, NIV)

Come to Jesus as you are and pray this prayer to accept Jesus as your Lord and Personal Savior. He will transform your life around! Praise the Lord! You don't have to have all the answers! You can come as you are!

If you want to be a soldier in the Lord's army, you can become it right now. Now is the time of Salvation! You do not have to wait but can pray this prayer and give your life to Christ to serve Him daily! There is no draft but coming to Christ is voluntary. He loves you so much and wants you to come to Him! He will take care of you, guiding you and leading you!

PRAYER:
Dear Jesus, I love you. Thank you for loving me so much and thank you for choosing the cross to die for me. You became the Son of Man and LIVEd here on earth. Then you humbled yourself and became obedient to death-even death on the cross. Thank you for dying on the cross for my sin. You died on the cross so that I can be covered in your blood and cleansed by your blood as I acknowledge that I need you and cannot enter Heaven without you being my pathway. So, Jesus I confess all my sins to you and all the ways I have tried to get into Heaven when you already provided the means and the Way. Thank you for all that you have done for me. The cross is the place, a wonderful place where accused and condemned find mercy and GRACE. Thank you Jesus, it is at the cross where the wrongs we have done and the wrongs done to us were nailed at the cross. Thank you Jesus, at the cross you died for our sins and at the cross you gave your life for us. I thank you for that and thank you for coming back to life to save us. Thank you Jesus for being there for me! Thank you for loving me. I love you Jesus! Please take me as I am and make my life into something that you will be proud of. I surrender my life to you and need your help to LIVE for you. I am forever grateful for what you have done for me and I can never repay you. I want to LIVE for you and need your help. Help me Jesus please. I thank you Jesus for saving me! Thank you for hearing my prayer and answering me. Whatever your will give me the willingness and strength to bear it. Thank you Jesus! I acknowledge you as my Lord and Personal Savior! In Your Name I Pray precious Jesus! Amen!

No matter what you feel in your heart, know that Jesus has come in and resides with you! You are not alone! To make your walk strong with the Lord, spend time in prayer talking to Him as you would to a friend. You don’t need special words to talk to the Lord. Spend time in His Word reading Psalms and turning them into prayer. Next allow God to heal you and speak to you through the Gospel of John or Gospel of Mark before moving on to other Books of the Bible! Slowly, let the Lord show you to which Scriptures He wants you to go to next. It is also important to be part of a body of believers to help you grow in the faith. Find a Bible believing church that preaches the Word of God from Genesis to Revelation proclaiming Jesus Christ our crucified and risen Lord who brings us hope, healing, and help! But beware of churches who do believe in the Word of God completely but there is no freedom in Christ but legalism involved.

As a professional, it is not too late to join a church! As a student, it is not too late to join a fellowship on campus this  new year of 2009! May the Lord's presence and peace fill you with His love now and forever! Amen!

 

Friend, if you have prayed this prayer and meant it in your heart, you are a new creation in Christ and all old things are passed away and everything has become new! You may feel something or may not but don’t base it on feelings but base your new life in Christ on the promises of our Savior who will never leave you nor forsake you! Amen!

Spend time in His word and let the Lord speak to you! Start out in the Gospel of John! You can also check out the Gospel of Mark which are the devotionals I have been going through.  Learn from Jesus through study and prayer. Also find yourself a church fellowship and a college fellowship you can be part of where you can be part of a community of believers to supplement your own walk with the Lord. Let it be a Bible-believing and Bible-breathing church! Believe in Bible LIVE Eternally!
