2020-09-06 Sermon – For me to live is Christ

This week we continue our sermon series on Paul’s letter to the church at Phillipi. We look at Chapter 1, verses 12 to 30. What can we learn from this part of Paul’s letter? Suffering and persecution is part of being a follower of Jesus, but God will always use all events to advance His Gospel because He loves the world and wishes all people to come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ so we might all say: “For us to live is Christ, and to die is gain! But we wish to remain because that will mean fruitful labor for us and glorify our King, the Lord Jesus Christ!”
