Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God. (Philippians 1:11) 1/ The fruits of righteousness that the apostle prays they might be filled with till the day of Jesus Christ. 2/ How these fruits come - "By Jesus Christ". 3/ To what end are these fruits by Jesus Christ - "Unto the glory and praise of God". *This sermon was preached at Hope Chapel Redhill Thanksgiving services in the afternoon.* **Sermon Summary:** The sermon centers on the apostle Paul's prayer in Philippians 1:11 that the believers be filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are not self-generated but solely sourced in Jesus Christ, and are ultimately directed toward the glory and praise of God. It emphasizes that these fruits—evidences of genuine sanctification such as love, holiness, truth, and godly conduct—are not merely moral improvements but transformative signs of a life renewed by grace, visible in daily behaviour, speech, and relationships. The preacher states that these fruits originate entirely from Christ, not human effort, and are sustained by His indwelling Spirit, illustrated through biblical contrasts between the old and new nature, and the necessity of dependence on Christ's work rather than self-righteousness. The ultimate purpose of such fruitfulness is not personal achievement or human recognition, but the exaltation of God, who is glorified when His people live in humble, Christ-centered dependence, drawing attention to His grace rather than their own merit. The sermon calls for continual prayer, self-examination, and a life marked by Christ-centered witness.
