  1. For God’s Glory

  2. For God’s Glory Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen. -- Ephesians 3:20–21 (ESV)

  3. God is glorified in the church when…1. WE FIGHT TOGETHER

  4. God is glorified in the church when…1. WE FIGHT TOGETHER For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. -- Ephesians 6:12 (ESV)

  5. God is glorified in the church when…1. WE FIGHT TOGETHER For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ. -- 2 Corinthians 10:3–5 (ESV)

  6. God is glorified in the church when…2. WE BUILD EACH OTHER UP

  7. God is glorified in the church when…2. WE BUILD EACH OTHER UP With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God. From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so. -- James 3:9–10 (ESV)

  8. God is glorified in the church when…2. WE BUILD EACH OTHER UP Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor? -- James 4:11–12 (ESV)

  9. God is glorified in the church when…2. WE BUILD EACH OTHER UP Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear. -- Ephesians 4:29 (ESV)

  10. God is glorified in the church when…2. WE BUILD EACH OTHER UP When we get together, I want to encourage you in your faith, but I also want to be encouraged by yours. – Romans 1:12 (NLT)

  11. God is glorified in the church when…3. WE SERVE EACH OTHER

  12. God is glorified in the church when…3. WE SERVE EACH OTHER “For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” -- Mark 10:45 (ESV)

  13. God is glorified in the church when…3. WE SERVE EACH OTHER So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. -- Philippians 2:1–4 (ESV)
