Philippians 2:1-11 THE THINGS OF OTHERS The underlying objective of Paul in writing to the believers at Philippi was to urge them to be unified as an assembly. In view of that purpose there are given examples for living the Christian life as God intends. The first example in this chapter is the Son of God Himself. The second is the servants of God. There should be a practical display of Christ seen in His people. Pride and ego can cause strife among God's people. But since there is "consolation" or encouragement in Christ, we need to claim for ourselves that which is ours in Christ.
