Concern For Others And For Christ | Philippians 2:19-30 | Richard Kennedy

Let’s learn from the examples of Timothy and Epaphroditus, who were Christ-focused, others-focused, and self-sacrificial.Paul gave us two examples of men who demonstrated care for others’ needs above their own, and more importantly, care for the interests of Christ above their own.Timothy and Epaphroditus demonstrated the mind of Christ from 2:3-5 (in humility count the other more significant than yourselves, and look out not only for your own interests but also the interests of others, as Jesus did, who humbled himself to serve even to lay down his own life for us on the cross.)These two men demonstrate living a life worthy of the gospel of Christ, as Paul instructed in 1:27. We live worthy of the gospel of Christ by having concern for others and for Christ.
