Philippians 2:19-30
Mind of Christ
vs21 - Selfish interests can’t exist in a gospel partnership.
Paul wanted to send Timothy because he truly cares for others.
These men showed they had genuine affection for others.
Don’t ever leave room for someone to question your motives on why you do what you do.
Proven Character
This is talking about someone who has been through testing and shows who they are.
There should be confidence that at the next test, the gospel is
what comes out.
There can’t be a hidden aspect of our lives.
Lack of character cannot be made up for by abilities.
Life on the Line
Paul had legitimate needs in the ministry that this man met at
great risk.
If we set limits, then we aren’t really in partnership.
We cannot fear death while bringing a message of eternal life.
With no limits, the opportunities are endless.
