Philippians – Approving the Things that Differ

Philippians

Approving the things that differ

And my worship is this, in order that your love should yet more and more abound in full experiential knowledge and all discernment, for the purpose that you approve the things that differ, in order that you all are pure and do not cause offense unto a day of Christ, having been filled up with fruit of righteousness, the [fruit] through Jesus Christ, unto a proper opinion and praise concerning God.

Philippians – Introduction

Introduction to the Book of Philippians

Written in 64 A.D. by Paul from a Roman prison to the saint, bishops, and deacons in Philippi.

Paul and Timothy, servants belonging to Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus, the ones who are in Philippi, with the Bishops and Deacons. Grace [is] to you and peace from God our Father and Lord Jesus Christ.  I give thanks to the God upon every remembrance of you,  always in all my supplication on behalf of all of you, while making the supplication with joy,  on the basis of your fellowship into the gospel from the first day until now, being persuaded of this same thing, that the One having begun in you a good work will bring it to its intended end until a day of Christ Jesus. Just as it is right for me to think this concerning all of you, because I have you in my heart, in both my bonds, and in the defense even confirmation of the gospel, all of you being my partners of the grace. For God is my witness, as I long for all of you with compassions of Christ Jesus.
