Becoming More Like Christ
Christians are being made more like Christ.
Philippians 1:6 expresses Paul’s confidence that God, who began a good work in the Philippian believers, would carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.
“He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 1:6, NIV
Romans 8:29 speaks of believers being conformed to the image of the Son, and 2 Corinthians 3:18 describes transformation into His image by the Spirit.
This growth includes repentance, obedience, correction, perseverance, prayer, Scripture, fellowship with other believers, and dependence on the Spirit.
Growth can feel slow from the inside. Philippians gives believers a steady reason for hope: God is faithful to continue His work in those who belong to Christ.
Where can you thank God for His work in you and ask Him to keep making you more like Jesus?
