    This session covers the background of the letter to the Philippians.



    Steve Lewis
  6. Paul’s affection for the Philippians (Philippians 1:1-11) 

    Paul opened his letter to the Philippians by expressing his appreciation for their partnership in the gospel. His gratitude to God overflowed with joy for their fellowship. He prayed that their love would increase, knowing that He who works in them will carry it on until their glorification at the Day of Christ.



    Steve Lewis
  7. Boldness in sharing the gospel (Philippians 1:12-18) 

    Public awareness of Paul’s imprisonment provided a platform for Christians to openly share the gospel with boldness. Paul was guarded day and night by a member of the Praetorian Guard, which allowed him to witness to a captive audience.



    Steve Lewis
  8. Paul reflects on his imprisonment (Philippians 1:19-30) 

    Paul was about to be on trial for his life, and the outcome was unknown. But far from being disheartened, Paul rejoiced in the midst of his difficulties. He was ready to accept either outcome – to die and be with Christ or to live and continue his ministry. He was constantly concerned about what would be best for others.



    Steve Lewis
  9. Christ’s example of selflessness (Philippians 2:1-11) 

    Paul exhorted the Philippians toward greater unity with one another, and in this section he began to share examples of selfless humility which the Philippians were to imitate. The ultimate example is found in the life of the Lord Jesus Christ



    Steve Lewis
  10. Models of selfless service (Philippians 2:12-30) 

    Paul urges believers to “work out” their salvation with the help of God who is “at work” within them. He provides three tangible examples of selfless service: himself, Timothy, and Epaphroditus.



    Steve Lewis
  11. Warning against false teachers (Philippians 3:1-16) 

    Certain teachers were saying that anyone who desired to be saved must follow the legalistic code given to the Jews in order to gain a righteous standing before God. Paul presented his own personal example to prove the futility of putting confidence in human works for achieving merit before a holy God. Instead, believers must put their faith in Christ alone, while we “press on toward the upward call of God.”



    Steve Lewis
  12. Instructions for Deepening Spiritual Growth (1 Thessalonians 5:12-28) 

    Paul began this final section of his letter by encouraging the brethren to respect and appreciate the leaders who are accountable for the welfare of the church. As members of the family of God they were to prop up the weak and bear with the failings of others in love. Their lives should be characterized by rejoicing, prayer, and thanksgiving.



    Steve Lewis
  13. Q421 : Mental Illness and Psychiatry 

    Which type of counseling should a Christian seek?



    Tony Garland
  14. Great Bible Doctrines - The Pretribulation Rapture (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18) 

    For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.



    Paul Henebury
  15. Great Bible Doctrines - The Rapture and Instant Glorification (1 Corinthians 15:47-54) 

    And as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man.



    Paul Henebury
  16. Great Bible Doctrines - The Coming Tribulation, Part 1 (Matthew 14:1-28) 

    For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.



    Paul Henebury
  17. Great Bible Doctrines - The Coming Tribulation, Part 2 (Matthew 14:1-28) 

    For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.



    Paul Henebury
  18. Acts - Satan’s Hindrances (Acts 17:1-9) 

    But the Jews who were not persuaded, becoming envious, took some of the evil men from the marketplace, and gathering a mob, set all the city in an uproar . . .



    Andy Woods
  19. Acts - The Death of Discernment (Acts 17:10-12) 

    These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so.



    Andy Woods
  20. Q422 : Will all Mankind Stand before God at a Single Judgment Event? 

    Does scripture teach that all mankind will stand together before God in one final judgment?
