The Book of Philippians Commentary
The
real theme of Phiippians is "Rejoicing".
Now think
about this for
just a moment... If you were in prison, chained to a guard, would you
be rejoicing?
Paul writes to the church at Philippi while he is chained between two
guards in prison in Rome.
Some of the Awesome subjects that Paul teaches on in Phiippians are :
Joy triumphing over suffering, An Exhortation to meekness and unity,
The humility of Jesus, How to have the same attitude that Jesus had
when you are suffering.
Jesus learned obedience in His suffering. This is the same way that we
also learn obedience. When we suffer, we can identify in some small
part with the suffering that Jesus endured on the Cross for us. We do
not rejoice over difficulties but we can rejoice over the final
outcome, that will turn out for good as we quietly trust in and believe
in the goodness of the Lord.
