'Side By Side For The Gospel'

Philippians 2:1-11

For the apostle Paul, the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ has been front and centre of his ministry. The believers at Philippi have been his faithful mission partners, supporting him even in his imprisonment. As Paul realises his own missionary travels may have drawn to a close, he is urging the Philippians to stand side by side for the faith of the gospel in a spirit of unity, love and humility.


Message Points:

  1. The mindset of unity and love (Philippians 2:2-5)
  2. The model of Christ in his humility (Philippians 2:5-8)
  3. The motive to advance the gospel (Philippians 1:27)

Application & Response:

  1. Who do I blame when our fellowship is divided? What responsibility do I have in promoting a spirit of love and unity?

  2. How does Christ's selfless humility challenge my expectations of church and my attitude to other believers?

  3. How can I ensure that bringing people to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ is central to my service in the church?
