“Christ Jesus Took Hold of Me”

 (ID: 2055)

Christ Jesus takes hold of the Christian personally, permanently, and purposefully. In this sermon on Philippians 3, Alistair Begg examines the three elements of the believer’s experience of Christ and the life that comes with it. Conversion, Scripture declares, is not a mere event but a gift of permanent love that helps those who know Jesus persevere and encourage one another.


Straining Toward the Goal

12Not that I have already lobtained this or mam already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own.
