Reflection Questions:

1. Verse 6 says that Jesus will bring the good work in us to completion.  What does this mean?

2. Why is it important to couple love with knowledge and discernment (vs. 9)?

3. How did God turn Paul's imprisonment and sufferings to advantage?

4. What advantage is Paul referring to when he says, "to live in Christ"? What advantages might Paul be thinking of when he says, "to die is to gain"?

5. Paul talks about not being frightened by our opponents.  What might we be frightened of and how do we stand firm with courage?

Love God Greatly - Philippians: Choosing Joy

How is it possible to have deep joy in the midst of overwhelming sorrow and suffering? Out of 104 verses in this power-packed book, Jesus is mentioned directly or indirectly 51 times. In the end, Paul teaches us that Jesus is the Author and only Source of true joy. The things of this world can never satisfy our deepest longings. Without Jesus there is no salvation, and therefore no lasting joy. Without Jesus there is no way to overcome our circumstances, to love people who are hard to love, to reconcile, to forgive, and to live godly lives.
