STAYING POSITIVE UNDER PRESSURE
Dr. Rick E. Ferguson
Philippians 1:1-2
Tonight I would like to begin a study of the book
of Philippians. This brief, 4--chapter book contains
some of the most powerful, positive, practical verses
of all the Bible. Some of the richest, most moving passages
of Scripture in all the Bible are found in this brief book.
So, even though this book is short (in comparison to other
Bible books), it is none the less a powerful book. Dynamite
comes in small packages.
Philippians is a book of tremendous triumph. A brief
scan of the book shows it to be a very positive, upbeat
book.
Ex. 1:3 "I thank my God upon every remembrance of
you."
1:6 "Being confident of this very thing, that he who
hath begun a good work in you will perform
it until the day of Jesus Christ."
1:18 What then? Not withstanding, every way, whether
in pretense, or in truth, Christ is preached;
and in that I do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice."
1:21 "For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain."
2:11 "That every tongue should confess that Jesus
Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
917 "Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice
and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice
with you all."
"Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord....'
3:10 "That I may know him, and the power of his
resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings,
being made conformable unto his death."
