Phil. 2
For Paul to be writing these words, it would imply that there were people there who were constantly grumbling, complaining about the leadership, issues in the church.
Perhaps arguing over what he could have done to avoid his arrest.
Do all things without murmurings and questionings: [ASV]
grumbling, complaining, murmuring.
Murmur: a half-suppressed or muttered complaint.
You don’t have the guts to come out and clearly state your grievance.
The OT gives us numerous examples of murmuring.

Murmur is an affront to God.
God actually counted the number of times they murmured and complained against Him.
God is love.
God is good.
God is great.
What He expects from us as a result?
- Faith/belief/trust and thankfulness.
In everything give thanks.
For this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

What does murmuring reflect?
a disgruntled spirit
things are not going my way - selfish
unthankful, ungrateful
negative attitude
not seeing God’s Sovereignty or Providence
focuses on situation rather than on God
It also affects those around you.
Murmuring brings the people around you down.
Think about the times you murmured in the past.
How did things turn out?
Reminds me of Israel

Conc.
There are many sins we see as obvious, ugly.
But there are also other sins that are equally destructive and despicable to God.
Unseen sins of hatred, bitterness, unforgiveness.
Murmuring is another thing He doesn’t take lightly.
