Philippians 3:
FS Principle #5 “Grow Up”
Paul tell us that in order to have this self determination, we must grow up!

“Let those of us who are mature”
initiated, one inducted into the believing community
initiated, one inducted into the believing community
Mature: initiated, one inducted into the believing community.
“Think this way”
A sign of maturity is a change in your thought process…
ESV
Brothers, do not be children in your thinking.
Be infants in evil, but in your thinking be mature.
ESV
When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child.
When I became a man, I gave up childish ways.
So that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes.
Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ,
ESV
For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the basic principles of the oracles of God.
You need milk, not solid food, for everyone who lives on milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, since he is a child.
“and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal that also to you.”
Some might be tempted to think they have “arrived” in their walk with Christ.
Paul assures them that God will reveal to them in His Word and through their experience that they indeed have not “arrived,” but instead still have a long way to go.

Philippians 3
Unfortunately some believers are not good examples to follow.
It distresses Paul greatly that there are believers who live their lives in opposition to the cross of Christ.
These believers pursue their own self-interest and pleasure and disregard His call to bear the cross of discipleship.
With their mind set on the things of the world, their pursuit of what is shameful will eventually result in their deaths.
Here selfishness and selflessness are clearly contrasted.
These libertines selfishly live for their own self-gratification.
Paul selflessly lives for Christ.

Who is our savior?
