Bible Study: Philippians Part III

The opening screen mistakenly says "Part II", but it's really Part III
Philippians 2:17-3:21

This time we'll look at what Paul means by "joying" at the thought of being offered upon the sacrifice and service of the Philippian's faith. We get some insights about Timothy and another warning against self serving religious teachers. We also examine Epahroditus, dogs, evil workers and "the concision."

Hear how Paul lost everything a career oriented, ambitious young man might pursue in the world, and was thankful to have lost it for Christ's sake. Hear Paul talk about attaining, and apprehending, and being apprehended, forgetting the things behind and reaching for the things before him; the prize, and the high calling of Jesus Christ.

We'll get a lesson on being perfect and being like minded with God, and how the ultimate perfect executive and boss will reveal our weaknesses and provide to us strength. Hear Paul's command to mark faithful men and unfaithful alike. And hear about our conversation in heaven, the modern translators sad substitution of the word "citizenship" for "conversation", and get the definitions of "ensample" versus "example."
