Living LikeYou Want to Die Philippians 1:21-23
Life In the Hereaftervs.Life in the Here-And-Now • Many in our world today have the right attitude toward the life hereafter, but they don’t have the right attitude toward the here-and-now • Like Balaam, many “talk” right about the hereafter (Num. 23:10), but they don’t “walk” right in the here-and-now (Num. 31;16; 2 Pet. 2:15; Jude 11; Rev. 2:14) • Are you living like you want to die?
Living Like You Want to Die • Do you want to die the death of the righteous (Num. 23:10), but not live the life of the righteous (Tit. 2:11-12; 1 Pet. 2:24)? • Do you want to die unto the Lord (Rom. 14:6-9), but not live unto the Lord (Rom. 14:10-12,18) • Do you want to die and be with Jesus (Phil. 1:23), but not live with Jesus (Phil. 1:20-21)?
Living Like You Want to Die • Do you want to fall asleep in Jesus (1 Thess. 4:13-14; Acts 7:60), but not live awake in Jesus (1 Thess. 5:4-11)? • Do you want to die in faith (Heb. 11:13), but not live in faith (Heb. 11:6)? • Do you want to die in the Lord (Rev. 14:13), but not live in the Lord (Rev. 14:4,5,12)?
