Philippians 1.27-30: Our Greater Citizenship in Christ
<p>In Philippians 1.27, Paul turns from considering the progress of the gospel through his own life to considering the progress of the gospel in the life of the church. The cultural background of those who are now in the church includes great pride in being a citizen of Philippi because of it being a Roman colony. In 1.27-30, Paul reminds them to live in the joy of their greater citizenship in the kingdom of God so that they may stand firm together, striving for the gospel without being alarmed by the opposition they are facing. Paul's exhortation for the church to "only live as citizens worthy of the gospel of Christ" is still an applicable exhortation for the church in our day.</p>

Philippians 1.21-26: Joy in Life Lived in Service to Christ
<p>How do you think about work and rest? Many of us work in order to rest. Work is the requirement for having things that bring us rest, or for being able to do things that bring us rest. We need rest for our bodies. We often seek "space" from people and the activities of life to provide rest for our souls. We rest in order to replenish our satisfaction and joy in life. Paul provides a counter-perspective to this way of thinking about work and rest. Our common ways of resting are often not restorative. When life is summed up in Christ, then every moment we have in life is an opportunity for "fruitful labor" in Christ. There is a particular vitality we find in that service of worship to Christ that is restorative and restful even though we labor. </p>

Philippians 1.18d-21: Superseding Joy
<p>We have looked at how joy can come through sharing in gospel ministry with others, how joy arises in our lives as our lives are shaped by God's Word, and that there can be joy even in difficult circumstances. But how do we practically establish our joy in Christ? It begins with changing the frame of reference we have for thinking about "life". Biblically, life is not just our life on this earth. Life is the life we have in Christ, and although that life has begun it is still yet to come! The assurance and security of our life in Christ is what allows joy in Christ to supersede any and all circumstances of life. The sharing in that assurance and joy with other Christians only serves to increase our joy. The reality of life in Christ is what makes Paul say, "life is Christ." </p>
