1/19: "Working Out" (Philippians 2:12-18)

1.  Why does Paul call for his readers to live in, and not retreat from, "a crooked and twisted generation"? How do we do this?




2.  In v. 12, Paul tells the Philippians to "work out your own salvation with fear and trembling." What does this look like in your own life? How is it possible for Christians to live with fear and trembling, yet also with joy?




3.  What does it mean to be a people of the Word?




4.  What does Paul say regarding our own words? How is our speech a reflection of our holiness?




5.  Paul lives in light of "the day of Christ." How often do you find yourself living in light of the future? How does Christ's return encourage and motivate you towards greater holiness?
