SERMONS

Synopsis: With the light of the Sun of Righteousness shining in their eyes, Paul now exhorts the Philippians to reflect Christ’s humility, obedience, selflessness, and love in the Gospel partnership and in the world. With Christ as the motivation and source of their power, the Saints in Philippi can endure their circumstances in unity with one another, obeying the word of God as good witnesses in the broader community. Good citizens of heaven make for good citizens in Philippi. This is how the Philippians will complete Paul’s work and make his sacrifice to Christ on their behalf worth it. Because of Christ’s humiliation and exaltation, today on into eternity, the Koinonia of Christ can be a gladsome and joy filled light in the world.
