2. Paul sets before the Philippians two
great qualities of the Christian life.
1) The first is the quality of joy.
‘Rejoice
… I will say it again—rejoice!’
It is as if,
having said ‘Rejoice!’, a picture of all
that was to come flashed into his
mind.
He himself was lying in prison
with almost certain death awaiting
him; the Philippians were setting out
on the Christian way, and dark days,
dangers and persecutions inevitably
lay ahead.
So Paul says: ‘I know what
I’m saying.
I’ve thought of everything
that can possibly happen.
And still I
say it—Rejoice!’ Christian joy is
independent of all things on earth
because it has its source in the
continual presence of Christ.

2.) Paul goes on, as the Authorized
Version has it: ‘Let your moderation
be known to all men.’
The word
(epieikeia) translated as moderation is
one of the most untranslatable of all
Greek words.

III.
THE PEACE OF BELIEVING PRAYER
A. (NIV) Do not be
anxious about anything, but in every
situation, by prayer and petition, with
thanksgiving, present your requests to
God.
And the peace of God, which
transcends all understanding, will
guard your hearts and your minds in
Christ Jesus.
B. Three great aspects of peace that
relate to God.
1. Peace from God
