Timothy Wayne George's comment about verse 6 on 1/19/2013, 5:09pm...
Just went from home going to a service for one of the Church members of my father's Church Mt. Zion Baptist, and this is the completion of this verse, when Jesus calls us home to glory. Jesus prayed that we would be with him in heaven, and at salvation, He justifies us, separates us for His service, then He calls us home to glory. Thank God death is not the end, but a transformation to glory. Praise God when we all get to heaven, what a glorious day that will be.

Reading this chapter shows how Paul was torn between going to our father where he knows things are great, or staying here on earth to continue his work. Question, what would you do?
Jim Roberts's comment on 11/15/2012, 9:57pm...
Paul gives us such hope in that he was clear that in Christ, we know that we will continue to be safe and secure, knowing that a better place is waiting. He had no fear of death. Hoped to be with the Lord, but was willing to stay and do his will.

God is the beginner and He ends whatever He started.

Philippians 1:20 Paul's hope is that Christ will be magnified in his body by life, and by death. When we minister to people who are sick, we have to remind them that our chief end is to glorify God, and keep His commandments. Paul wanted to be with Christ which was far better, but he knew that the Lord wanted him to encourage the believers to be strong in the Lord Jesus Christ. Just before he passed to glory, my father reminded me of this verse, that it is appointed for us not only to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, but also to suffer for Him. When times get hard for us, we are not to complain, but to praise God, for all things work together for good to those who love the Lord. To live is Christ, and to die gain.

Let your salvation and faith in Christ be intact, then your trust in the Lord will now abound.

Hi; the John 14:26; John 15:26; John 16:13
John 14:26 = Jesus speaking said,
26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you. This clarifys the issue of the Trinity that some seem to be having trouble with. don't fall into the trap of splitting hairs. The Word became flesh, just do what He says. regards.N

God is faithful, Philippians 1 is an amazing passage that brings alot of insight on how to be happy serving the Lord even in the midst of circumstance. In this life, there are many bumbs along our way but God has given us victory and Christ made it revealed to us that He comes that our Joy be field. The secret of Paul even while he was in prison yet he found it a previledge to had an encounter with Chrit, Acts 9. The best part of it all God shows to be what He says He will. He called and He all revealed to the Saint why He called. He also arranged for the provisons. Praise God! Thank you and GOD bless you.

Apostle paul was sent to the gentiles,he said a profound statement am cirusified with christ never the less i live but christ lives in me,and the life i live now is by faith in the son of God.
Ireceivedredemption's comment on 3/08/2012, 8:10pm...
The truth is the most powerful words ever to be written. I read and yet never understood. Paul fears nothing and is greatful to be in prison for Jesus! He came to me and washed me in His grace!
Taylor's comment about verse 15 on 1/02/2012, 8:14pm...
how can you preach the word full envy and strife and know-one see the spirit.the question is how long a person can preach in that evil spirit and be hid

Sis. Bonnie is right on target!!
Sis. Bonnie's comment on 10/13/2011, 8:28am...
I bless the 'LORD' for this day, I bless the 'LORD' for this passage of scripture,and I bless the 'LORD' for my fellow comrades in the gospel of our 'LORD and 'SAVIOR','JESUS CHRIST'. I am so grateful for the redemptive work that 'GOD' has and is yet bestowing upon the lives of his people through the word.This passage builds us up in hope, faith, and love that gives great joy to the believer that prays for his or her bretheren. my mom use to sing a song that says: Pray on my child you got a home on high. So in the trials, and tribulations, wheather her bond or free, for if we suffer, we too shall reign.

I know that every word in the bible is sent from GOD delivered by holy men of GOD to benefit the wise!
Tenny's comment on 9/28/2011, 12:05pm...
To me it is telling us that as ambassadors for christ we should talk the talk and walk the talk. We should never be afraid to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. Christ died for us that we may live for him, we should be willing to live for him and die for him also. Jesus is coming soon, we should be ready for anything.
Rachel ashubwe's comment on 7/02/2011, 3:44pm...
to live is christ to die is gain
it doesnt matter what motivates people to preach be it pretence or truth as long as the word of God is preached then thats what matters
Patrick's comment on 3/19/2011, 11:56pm...
That we are to share the gospel where ever we go.In good and bad time.

I greet you in the name of our father,you know we shoulb be greatful of what GOD is giving to answer,this scripture came to me as a dream yesterday then today when i read it i find out that it is talking about me and the situation that i'm in.Not to loose hope no matter what.
Robert's comment on 2/05/2011, 5:20am...
I find it to be gratifying how He shows us how to step out on faith no matter what the consequences. Whether the letter is capital or not, it is a reminder that we still have to go through things in life that can try to get us of course.
Jessicarodriguez's comment on 1/13/2011, 12:50pm...
ch.1v21-I use to be very frightened of death,but this verse gives u a piece of mind.
Trent's comment about verse 6 on 11/27/2010, 7:21pm...
If you click on verse 6, you'll see that half the translations have the He capitalized and half don't. I'm sure each had their reasons for capitalization. It doesn't appear to change the meaning though.
Katie's comment on 11/27/2010, 7:18pm...
I like having a different translation right at my fingertips but I was a bit disappointed because the "He" in verse 6(referring to Christ) was not capitalized.
