Philippians 1 - 2:9 - Love and Unity

Paul wrote this highly relevant letter whose theme is "joy through suffering" while imprisoned in Rome. There may never have been a time when this letter could mean more to some of the families which have been impacted by the tragic events of the recent past. Paul knew suffering; and Paul knew true joy. And he knew joy through suffering. In his darkest hour, he wrote a letter to encourage his most intimate friends.

Philippians 2 :9 -2:30 - The Sin Bearer

Philippians 3:1- 3:21 - Two Kinds of Righteousness

Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.  Matthew 5:48.  A chain is ineffective if one link breaks.
