Growing Together in 2024 pt 4: Tension
In the conclusion to our series on Hebrews 10:24, we take a look at how the Apostle Paul carefully considers his dear friends in Philippi as he writes to them to “provoke [them] to love and good deeds”. His prayer for them in chapter one is a beautiful expression of that goal. As he continues his letter he addresses some points of tension they are experiencing – opposition from outside the church and division inside it.
Like the Philippians, most of us have people around us who try to pull us away from Jesus at times; and many of us have people who are following Jesus with us, but just struggling to get along as we do that. The way we deal with each type of tension is actually quite different, so we need to be very clear about what kind of tension we’re experiencing in order to choose the best response to it.
