Daniel Boyd Life lessons - by Paul Philippians 4:10-13 I almost picture Paul sitting like a grandfather passing on an important lesson to his kids. Paul is in prison, so the picture doesn’t quite fit. But he is passing on wisdom in this passage. He speaks of a lesson he has learned and urges us to prepare to learn the same lesson. Paul has commanded his readers to confront (4:2-3), to pray (4:5-7)...

Daniel Boyd Praying and Thinking Philippians 4:5b-9 We have been working through the imperatives of this final section. Paul exhorts his readers to be mimickers in 3:17, to stand firm in 4:1 (repeated from 1:27), and to rejoice in 4:4 (repeated from 2:17-18 and 3:1). The verses we’ll cover this morning are perhaps some of the most familiar passages of Scripture. I think after John 3:16 these were...

Daniel Boyd HARMONY AND JOY Philippians 4:2-5a A theme that Paul has carried since chapter 1 is standing firm (or standing strong). As a general rule we are enamored with people, who are able to stand strong like that. Persons that are unwavered by the opinions of others, unmoved by the circumstances that frighten others and boldly charge ahead, whether that be in business, in politics, in family...

WE HADDEN TECHNISCHE PROBLEMEN. DE BACK-UP STAAT ER NU OP, MAAR DIE OPNAME IS NIET ZO GOED ALS GEWOONLIJK. MIJN EXCUSES VOOR HET ONGEMAK. WALKING WITH HOMESICKNESS Philippians 3:17-4:1 In the passage we will look at today Paul finishes out a theme that he has carried through the entire epistle. Allow me to give you a brief overview of the first three chapters of Philippians: Paul’s thanksgiving pr...

English Outline Purpose driven living Philippians 3:10-16 Paul continues his thoughts from last week. Remember? He’s discounted all his own righteousnesses, tossing them on a heap and calling them garbage. Everything pales in comparison to knowing and winning Christ. Our passage this morning isn’t difficult to understand, but immensely difficult to put into practice. It is significant for us to un...

Daniel Boyd Performance Review Philippians 3:1-9 Ever bitten your lip? Everything was great… you had plunged your fork into your next bite and encapsulated it in your mouth. Flavors were bursting in your mouth with every chew, all the while being mindful to eat with your mouth closed, because that’s how you were raised. Little did you know that keeping your mouth closed this particular time was br...

Where are the godly Men? Part 2 Philippians 2:25-30 Repeat from last week: a year or two ago I attended a conference in LImburg where Henk Binnendijk was the speaker. He drew our attention to David’s lament in Psalm 12: O LORD, for the godly one is gone; for the faithful have vanished from among the children of man. Binnendijk posed this question: Where are the godly men? Where are the faithful am...

Where are the godly Men? Philippians 2:19-24 The passage we will look at this morning is not earth-shattering in its significance. Paul does not give us great insight or theological gold nuggets in these verses. In fact, in reading Paul’s words, you may have dismissed them as a personal section of his letter that doesn’t relate to you. Yet these words teach us something vital to your Christian wal...

ENGLISH OUTLINE Encountering Simeon Daniel Boyd Lukas 2:21-39 I. Obedient Parents Being the devout Jews that Jesus’ parents were, they made sure to follow law and custom regarding their newborn child. I’m sure the fact that He was the Messiah and had been foretold in such a spectacular way caused this young couple to ensure they did everything by the book, so to speak. We read this in verses 21-24...
