Philippians Study 1
Study 1 – Preached on Sunday 20th June 2021
SERVANTS AND SAINTS – Philippians 1:1-2
Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the overseers and deacons: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
“Rabbi” Duncan said of two converts in Budapest! - "They used to read day after day the epistles of Paul, as if they had been letters that had come by that morning's post.”
That's challenging - reading the Bible with relish is hard to maintain! Paul's introductions always contains key topics opened later in the letters - Paul writing to this church from prison/likely to be Rome as in Acts 28 v16 - this makes it even more surprising that the letter is so full of joy!
