A Farewell

Senior Pastor Young Ho Hwang concludes his series in the book of Philippians, preaching from Philippians 4:21-23. Paul addresses and closes his letter to God's saints, revealing Paul's heart. He never addresses them as sinners, but saints. Though we still sin, God does not identify us as such. He has set us apart as Holy to Him. His righteousness, blood, and His life were given for us. We are the branches of His body. We did not earn this gift, it is given to us by His grace. How we greet others reveals something about us and reflects the core of our identity. Let's aim to greet our brothers and sisters in Christ as saints and not judge them as sinners. We are a family in Christ and belong to God. For this is how He sees us. Amen.
