Dr. Hyler spoke from Philippians Chapter 3, 10-14. Verses 1-9 Paul tells his story of how Jesus Saved him. Verse 10 tells what happens next. As Christians we are to press on in the Christian race. Paul’s drive was to know the Lord Jesus Christ in an intimate and personal way.
God is at work all the time.
Paul also wanted to know the Resurrection Power as a believer. God’s power comes through His presence.
An invitation was given followed by a Benediction.
