2. Live differently! – v. 9

Spiritual maturity is never measured by what you know but by what you do.

Practice what you know
Learned = someone intentionally told you, biblical instruction
Received = experienced; truth accepted personally
Heard = explained to you personally
Seen = witnessed
Knowledge without action leads to spiritual indifference.

3. Experience the God of Peace – v. 9

“… and the God of peace will be with you.” – Philippians 4:9

Think right, live right, and the result is not simply the peace of God, but the God of Peace Himself.

If you think right, you can live right and experience the God of Peace.
