If we are to escape the life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness bunch.
We must pay attention to what Paul wrote to the believers in Philippi.
What is the mark and how do we press this mark in our lives?
In essence we are facing the same obstacles from the same institutions.
The leaders of society in both politics and faith are in pursuit of their own brand of happiness, peace, and prosperity.
It was the same then as it is now, and we must abandon those pursuits and press the mark that is found only in Christ Jesus.
