MESSAGE: Live Worthy of the Gospel

DATE: February 19, 2023

Just one thing: As citizens of heaven, live your life worthy of the gospel of Christ. Then, whether I come and see you or am absent, I will hear about you that you are standing firm in one spirit, in one accord, contending together for the faith of the gospel…”  Philippians 1:27

“Contending together” – synathléō

I urge Euodia and I urge Syntyche to agree in the Lord. Yes, I also ask you, true partner, to help these women who have contended for the gospel at my side, along with Clement and the rest of my coworkers whose names are in the book of life. Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your graciousness be known to everyone.  Philippians 4:2-5 

Am I fighting “against” people or am I fighting “for” the Gospel? 

What does it look like to contend together for the Gospel?
