Philippians

Extract:

Above all in the letter we see to the heart of the gospel. “Though the Gospel is capable of doctrinal exposition, though it is eminently fertile in moral results, yet its substance is neither a dogmatic system nor an ethical code, but a person and a life” (Lightfoot) ‐ the person and life of Jesus. It is the life of Jesus and our life in Jesus that calls us back from all distractions to issues of central concern. Pray for your time in Philippians that you at the end might be able to join Paul in saying “For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain”.
