In Philippians 3:10, the Apostle Paul expresses his heartfelt desire, “that I may know Him (Christ).” Paul had known Christ for many years as his Savior and Lord, so what did he mean? Paul desired to know Jesus Christ more deeply through experiencing a close, personal relationship with Him on a daily basis. In this series of Bible messages, we explore how we, as believers in Christ, can experience this same thing in our own lives.

These Bible messages entitled “Knowing Christ” were preached by Pastor Gregg Bing in 2021 during the morning worship services at Grace Bible Church in Fort Worth, TX.

Christ in Paul's Epistles - His Coming

Knowing Christ

The last group of Paul's epistles to local churches primarily deals with Christ and His Coming. This group consists of Paul's two letters to the believers at Thessalonica who were suffering affliction and persecution from the unbelieving Jews there. Because of this tribulation, these believers were worried and confused about issues having to do with the tribulation period, the day of the Lord, and the return of Christ for His church. Paul addresses these concerns as well as instructing believers how to live in light of their blessed hope in Christ.
