Phillipians Overview

Via Zondervan Revolution Bible Copyright 2003

Author:

The Apostle Paul

Audience:

The church at Philippi.

Date:

About A.D. 61.

Verse to Remember:

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice (4:4).

Theme to Consider:

Joy has nothing to do with our circumstances. According t Paul, if you believe to Christ, then you can have joy in suffering, joy in serving, joy and believing, and joy in giving. That's reason to rejoice.

Life Lessons:

1: Salvation is only the first step in God's amazing plan for your life. (1:6).

2: Your attitude toward other people--especially toward other believers--should identify you as a Christian (2:1-4,14-15).

3: Learn to be content with what you have (4:12).

4: The fact that God's the strength flows through you means you're capable of a lot more than you will ever realize (4:13).
