Philippians 1:18b-26 - Whether By Life or By Death

In this sermon, Rev. Ben Sinnard will be looking at Philippians 1:18b-26 as we continue our sermon series in Paul’s letter to the Philippian church. In this passage we see Paul continuing his thoughts from last week as he wrote about his imprisonment and the spread of the gospel message. Through this passage we see a beautiful vision for life, a motivating truth to cling to that “to live is Christ, and to die is gain” (v21). For Christians there is real, legitimate tension between living and dying, knowing that upon death we gain all, Christ. For Paul living unafraid to die (because in death is gain) frees him to live for Christ. Is Christ more precious to you then your life? Do you really believe that death is gain? Whether by life or by death Christ will be honored.
