5 The Letter of Paul to the Philippians I. The Background of the Letter II. The Occasion of the Letter
6 Why Did Paul Write The Letter? To thank them for their support and update them on his circumstances. To encourage the Philippians as they faced persecution. To call them to love, unity and humility. To caution them about false teaching.
7 The ESV Study Bible: Philippians overflows with joy and thanksgiving. Paul wrote to the church in Philippi to thank them for a gift. He reported the joyful news that Epaphroditus, who had brought their gift to Paul, had recovered from his illness and was returning to Philippi. Paul said that he had learned the secret of being content in any situation, and he told them about his situation in prison. He expressed joy that more people were hearing about Christ even if some were proclaiming the gospel with bad motives. Wanting the Christians in Philippi to be unified, he challenged them to be servants just as Jesus was when he emptied himself and! became a man rather than clinging to the rights of his divine nature.

20 The Letter of Paul to the Philippians I. The Background of the Letter II. The Occasion of the Letter III. The Theme of the Letter
21 Jude 24 Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling and make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy.
22 Imagine if we truly believed God at His Word... that there is a joy available to us that will enable us to experience a deeper capacity to love others, to forgive others, to find joy even in painful circumstances, and that becomes our North Star filling us with purpose and passion.
23 Imagine if we took God at His Word and allowed Jesus to transform our minds and hearts in such a way that the addictions offered to us daily would have no attraction to our soul.
24 Imagine if we took God at His Word and stopped playing religious games trying to appease God through dead rituals and a performance based lifestyle, and rested in the truth that He will ensure we become the men and women we were created to be, if we would do the connecting and let Him do the perfecting.
25 Imagine what would happen if we would follow Jesus example, emptying ourselves of our attachments, our need to be right, our need for power and control and began to live connected to God, moment by moment, breath by breath, available and obedient to the voice of His Spirit. Pastor Monty Wright
