Paul had no idea of the survival rate of his letter to the Philippians. He didn’t know that a modern world would be reading and discussing his writings. Paul was encouraging that as a believer, the mind of Christ is in us. Our hearts should be unselfish. We must strive to imitate Jesus. With issues of life, we must conduct ourselves worthy of the gospel of Christ. We must not become frightened by those who oppose us, but realize that the Father, God, is the issue of salvation. We must freely be led through our struggles and sufferings. Let us humble ourselves before God and He will exalt us.
