scripture: philippians 1:18-1:26

Sunday, December 3, 2023 – Today’s message is the 5th in our study on Paul’s letter to the Philippians, titled “God’s Purposes Bigger than Circumstances.” Paul shows us how to live above the circumstances of life by knowing his purpose in them and recognizing that God will complete what He wants accomplished. As a result, Paul can make some bold statements, like; “To live is gain, but to die is Christ,” even while being torn between the desire to depart from his earthly situation or to go on living, which he understands will require a commitment to be a fruitful laborer for Christ. By having that level of committed faith, he can be free from the fear of living and dying and be joyful and productive independent of his life circumstances. There is much for us to learn from Paul. Worship and study with us.

When we realize the truth that to live is Christ and all the freedom that affords us, we can understand that Easter truly is forever for Christ followers.

For me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. Philippians 1:21

The apostle Paul was not a super hero but he did have the power of single-mindedness about his mission for the Lord, a power that is not unavailable to Christ followers.

En este pasaje estudiamos tanto la importancia que tienen las oraciones de los creyentes por sus líderes, como también la idea de que el morir es ganancia para toda aquella persona que ha hecho de Cristo su estilo de vida.
