    Preaching From Philippians #4

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 28, 2021
     | 1,914 views

    In Chapter one, Paul let these Christians in Philippi know that he wanted to come to them, but couldn’t because he was in jail.

    He also wanted them to know that his being in jail might bring about his death, but if it did, they were not to let it shake their faith in the Lord Jesus.

    Timothy (Paul's Disciple) Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jan 3, 2022

    This young man was so closely associated with the Apostle Paul that they shared his thoughts and work. However, we must assume the more profound knowledge of him conveyed by the Acts and Epistles and by the letters of counsel addressed by St. Paul to him personally.
