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 Pastoral Epistles

Knowing Christ

In addition to his epistles to local churches, Paul also wrote epistles to men serving as pastors in local churches, particularly Timothy and Titus. The focus of these epistles is on the importance of "sound doctrine," teaching which enables believers to be spiritually healthy and grow in Christ. In this message, we examine what Paul meant by "sound doctrine" and consider three lessons we can learn from these important New Testament books that will help us to know Christ.
