Every man in His Place *Jud.
7:16-21.*
*Phil.
1:27-30** *EBC 6~/01~/08
There are many ways to look at these verses and give credit.
Some say it was great leadership on the part of Gideon – which it was.
But, there is another way to look at this story- from the point of the individual- every man stood in his place.
Every man was exactly where God wanted them to be.
We also found out that every man did that which God expected him to do.

John MacArthur- The church’s greatest testimony before the world is spiritual integrity.
When Christians live below the standards of biblical morality and reverence for their Lord, they compromise the full biblical truth concerning the character, plan, and will of God.
By so doing, they seriously weaken the credibility of the gospel and lessen their impact on the world.
When the unsaved look at the church and do not see holiness, purity, and virtue, there appears to be no reason to believe the gospel it proclaims.

Our Life thru Cooperation (1:27b)*
* *A.
We aren’t in this battle alone.
Warren Wiersbe- Paul pictures the church as a team.
He reminds them that it is teamwork that brings victory.

In one spirit- we should be as one man—this is the attitude that should characterize EBC.
B.
There was some dividedness in the church at Philippi and many were taking sides in the dividedness.
1.
The Devil always loves to see God’s people divided on issues.
2.
Warren Wiersbe- in the Local church each person has job to do and an assigned place, if each is doing their job it helps the others.
