Love for Enemies.

The gospel according to Mathew chapter 5 verses 33-48.

33. “Again, you have heard that it was said to the people long ago, ‘Do not break your oath, but fulfill to

the Lord the vows you have made.’

34. But I tell you, do not swear an oath at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne;

35. or by the earth, for it is his footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King.

36. And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make even one hair white or black.

37. All you need to say is simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything beyond this comes from the evil one.

38. “You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’

39. But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also.

40. And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well.

41. If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles.

42. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.

43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’

44. But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

45. that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good,

and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.

46. If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that?

47. And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that?

48. Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

To God be the glory .

Concerning Divorce.

The gospel according to Mathew.

Mathew chapter 5 verses 31-37.

31. “It has been said, ‘Anyone who divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.’

32. But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, makes her the victim of adultery,

and anyone who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

Oaths

33. “Again, you have heard that it was said to the people long ago, ‘Do not break your oath, but fulfill to the Lord

the vows you have made.’ 34. But I tell you, do not swear an oath at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne;

35. or by the earth, for it is his footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King.

36. And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make even one hair white or black.

37. All you need to say is simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything beyond this comes from the evil one.

Glory be to God.

Adultery.

The gospel according to Mathew.

Mathew chapter 5 verses 27-30.

27. “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’

28. But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

29. If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part

of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.

30. And if your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose

one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.

Glory be to God.

Thanks for Their Gifts

The gospel according to Paul.

Philippians chapter 4 verses 10-20.

10. I rejoiced greatly in the Lord that at last you renewed your concern for me. Indeed, you were concerned,

but you had no opportunity to show it.

11. I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.

12. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty.

I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.

13. I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

14. Yet it was good of you to share in my troubles.

15. Moreover, as you Philippians know, in the early days of your acquaintance with the gospel, when I set out from Macedonia,

not one church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving, except you only;

16. for even when I was in Thessalonica, you sent me aid more than once when I was in need.

17. Not that I desire your gifts; what I desire is that more be credited to your account.

18. I have received full payment and have more than enough.

I am amply supplied, now that I have received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent.

They are a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God.

19. And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.

20. To our God and Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Final Exhortations

The gospel according to Paul.

Philippians chapter 4 verses 4-9.

4. Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!

5. Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near.

6. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

7. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

8. Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely,

whatever is admirable if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things.

9. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

Closing Appeal for Steadfastness and Unity.

The gospel according to Paul.

Philippians chapter 4 verses 1-3.

1. Therefore, my brothers and sisters, you whom I love and long for, my joy and crown, stand firm in the Lord in this way, dear friends!

2. I plead with Euodia and I plead with Syntyche to be of the same mind in the Lord.

3. Yes, and I ask you, my true companion, help these women since they have contended at my side in the cause of the gospel,

along with Clement and the rest of my co-workers, whose names are in the book of life.

No Confidence in the Flesh

The gospel according to Paul.

Philippians chapter 3 verses 1-14.

1. Further, my brothers and sisters, rejoice in the Lord! It is no trouble for me to write the same things to you again,

and it is a safeguard for you.

2. Watch out for those dogs, those evildoers, those mutilators of the flesh.

3. For it is we who are the circumcision, we who serve God by his Spirit, who boast in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh

4. though I myself have reasons for such confidence. If someone else thinks they have reasons to put confidence in the flesh, I have more:

5. circumcised on the eighth day, of the people of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; in regard to the law, a Pharisee;

6. as for zeal, persecuting the church; as for righteousness based on the law, faultless.

7. But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ.

8. What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord,

for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ

9. and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law,

but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith.

10. I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death,

11. and so, somehow, attaining to the resurrection from the dead.

12. Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal,

but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.

13. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do:

Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,

14. I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

Timothy and Epaphroditus

The gospel according to Paul.

Philippians chapter 2 verses 19-30.

19. I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, that I also may be cheered when I receive news about you.

20. I have no one else like him, who will show genuine concern for your welfare.

21. For everyone looks out for their own interests, not those of Jesus Christ.

22. But you know that Timothy has proved himself, because as a son with his father he has served with me in the work of the gospel.

23. I hope, therefore, to send him as soon as I see how things go with me.

24. And I am confident in the Lord that I myself will come soon.

25. But I think it is necessary to send back to you Epaphroditus, my brother, co-worker and fellow soldier,

who is also your messenger, whom you sent to take care of my needs.

26. For he longs for all of you and is distressed because you heard he was ill.

27. Indeed he was ill, and almost died. But God had mercy on him, and not on him only but also on me, to spare me sorrow upon sorrow.

28. Therefore I am all the more eager to send him, so that when you see him again you may be glad and I may have less anxiety.

29. So then, welcome him in the Lord with great joy, and honor people like him,

30. because he almost died for the work of Christ. He risked his life to make up for the help you yourselves could not give me.

Do Everything Without Grumbling.

The gospel according to Paul.

Philippians chapter 2 verses 12-18.

12. Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence,

but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling,

13. for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.

14. Do everything without grumbling or arguing,

15. so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.”

Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky

16. as you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain.

17. But even if I am being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice and service coming from your faith,

I am glad and rejoice with all of you.

18. So you too should be glad and rejoice with me.

Imitating Christ’s Humility.

The gospel according to Paul.

Philippians chapter 2 verses 1-11.

1. Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love,

if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion,

2. then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind.

3. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves,

4. not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.

5. In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:

6. Who, being in very nature, God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;

7. rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very natureof a servant,being made in human likeness.

8. And being found in appearance as a man,he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death even death on a cross!

9. Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name,

10. that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,

11. and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
