Discuss Philippians 1 Page 12

That we should not allow the enemy to frighten us under whatever guise because this will put us under God s full support and our enemies will be destroyed

Paul has no worries because he knows Jesus is behind him He is set for defense of the gospel With Jesus behind him who can be against him He is victorious

To abide in the flesh We abide by the rules The people abide by the word They not only read it but also live by it We live for Christ because he died on that cross for us We abide by his word in our earthly lives is more needfull for you Paul s fate has been sealed but the people need to abide in order to receive eternal life Even more than that they need to bring others to Christ The abide follow in the flesh the word has a life of it s own

I think God is telling us no matter what your circumstances are and how bad they may seem to you, continue to trust in him. Continue to magnify Christ Jesus by letting all know that he is the savior.

I believe God is saying, we are not perfect, we He started a good work in us, and he is faithful to complete it!! We live in the flesh, only our Lord is perfect and just!!!

God want us to believe and trust in his word and be fruitful
But shear the good news by talking to those that have not receive him and in doiing so we truely love him and will
Receive our reward.

our confidence is in jesus christ, not ourselves

god finishes whatever he starts inspite of prevailing circumstances favourable or not he is the author and finisher of his plans and purposes

I think god the father had give us the life to live on the earth on his fullness but still not on'our own througth jesus of couse yes then is where we get peace to ourself and to our god then we can say we are waiting his coming

What are the bonds Peter is talking about? vs 7 and 14.

Hi, I was wondering whether I could have permission to use the image of Philippians chapter 1 on my website. I would include appropriate credit and a link.

I consider my body as a holy temple, pure and clean. The holy Ghost dwells in holiness, the Father dwells in me as I am filled with the fruits of righteousness to the glory of God the Father.

Paul says , *preach the gospel without fearing.* Elohim is the boss in Jesus' work, as his followers we ought to follow his steps in anyways, and I like that.

Can God? God can.

Am reminded in verse1 Paul greet the SAINTS at Philippi, as christians, we have that edge among others, therefore, we must live our lives in that respect. To be like Jesus.

This letter encouranges us to stand in the gap. The gap of the Lord.

The centre point of the book of Phillipian 1 vrs 6 is having absolute trust in God.He has started the good work and He will finish it.

The 'he'here is not God but 'anybody' from among the believers;otherwise God would not judge anyone for failing to accomplish what he started and the "if we don't give ups" in the bible,have no meanings since it's God who started it and must compplete it until jesus comes as some think.

Philippians 1:21 is the pivotal verse for me, upon which balances the whole concept of Christian living

It prepares us for the second coming of Christ. Jesus is the whole point of discussion in the book of philipians

God is faithful and does not do half jobs, all his work is absolutely perfect just like in the time of creation, at the end of it all-all was very good. Its really none of our business how He does it but we have to trust Him with all our heart

to me am saying that the book of philippians is encouraging us to trust God who can do everything

(This is my respond to DPMills's Philippians Chapter 1 comment about verse 6 on 9/04/2013, 12:27am):

We have no right to question the divine wisdom of God. The book of Romans Chapter 9 made it clear that we are not supposed to question our God's will.

Am thrilled by the passion of Paul, his affliction did not discourage him, he encourage the people to be strong in lord not allowing any thing to contradict there faith.

I think that Philippians 1:6 is majorly focusing on our faith as Christians. We need to focus solely on God,because He's the All Knowing God and He surely shall make everything that He promised to come to pass to them who believe in Him.

God is the true ruler of all that we see- he created this as well as all of us! It is not our place to question his devine wisdom?

In 1999, I was diagnosed with cancer. During this first few months, the Lord revealed to me this scripture. That He would finish what He had started!! Five months later the cancer was gone, and He had surely finished what He had started. Doing well today!!

This p***age reminds me afresh that it is the salvation of mankind that is to be our p***ion and desire as it is in God's heart.

These wonderful words of life are so inspiring.
Beautiful encourgement to the christian individual as well as the church as a whole.
Troubled times are comming, yes are here. We must be in agreement with each other,strengthen one another, present the gospel of Jesus Christ to others in the spirit of love.

The most important thing in this great chapter, is that Jesus Christ is being preached. The brothers are more bold, because of the bonds of the Apostle Paul to preach the gospel. Therefore Paul said the things that happened unto me, have turned out for the furtherance of the gospel. This verse is companion to Rom. 8:28 We know that all things work together for our good, to those who love the Lord, and are called according to His purpose. Yes suffering for Jesus Christ works together for our good, for it is appointed unto us not only to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, but also to suffer for Him. So let us continue to strive with one spirit, one mind, and one faith for the gospel of Jesus Christ.

After reading this chapter, I read the 7 comments given, and realized these were the same thoughts I was having as I read and rejoiced. Thank you brothers and sisters, I wish I could know you, and just sit down and fellowship in the love of Jesus Christ. How encouraging and uplifting and confirming! Thank you!
