PAUL WRITES TO THE PHIL
IPPIANS,
Study entire letter.

DIQuy chill Z lCIlSI'

strengtheneth me.-PhiI. 4:13.
THE BREAD-AND-BUTTER LET
TER
Every letter Paul wrote was a
thankful one but this is the only
thank-you epistle in the entire list.
1t was a Observation-Disclosures letter"
that runs over with affectionate ap-
probation for the gifts from the
first church born in Europe and for
which Paul always remained a de-
voted lover. 1t was not their first
gift for once and again they sent to
Thessalonika and to Corinth the sup
plies that enabled the Apostle to car
~ on in larger measure and with
uplifted spirit the work of the King
dom. He paid his own bills in Eph-
esus and in Corinth and received
nothing from any other church-Why
did he allow this one to minister to
his support and refuse it from the
others? 1t is the one church in
which there was never a hint of mis-
understanding of Pauls motive that
tainted the atmosphere of Corinth
and Ephesus with gossip of his
seeking after their money. Love ran
its course in absolute confidence and
when that is true favors can be ac-
cepted with high joy. Then it was
the natural expression of their feel
ings for they were unusually gener-
Gus. Never a hint of need in Jerusa-
lem or other places among enemies
OF friends but they were ready to
help with their means. 1t was the
life and tho poor they felt them
selves constantly rich and must give
to express it. Two churches may
face the same situation with the same
ability and yet their response meas
ured in money be far apart-lt is the
expected thing in each case and the
love in one has never had the riotous
Joy of sacrifice for the beloved that is
manifested in the other There, too, it
was dominated by its women and If
there was a Mite Society in that old
day it was in Philippi. Women must
minister to the comfort of those they
love. Lydia did it as soon as she ac-
cepted Christ and would not be denied
the privilege and more than in any
other church womanhood found place
in its leadership. So when word came
that Paul was in prison in Rome there
was immediate talk of what could be
done. "What does he need?" was the
The Republican., 1925-09-03

chief question and they did a perfect
ly beautiful thing in selecting choice
things for hint was no Home Mis-
sion barrel of ast-olfs-and sending
them by one Of the most Christly
characters in the New Testament. No
one could forward any but choice
things by such hands and it is not
strange that Paul's heart over-flowed
with JOY at his reception and at the
proof of the love that he carried not
only in the supplies but in the cheer
ing service he himself gave the man
he loved, gambling" with his very
life to supply Paul's need.
THE MIND-OF JESUS LETTER
This seems to be the last of Pauls
letters except those of Timothy and
Titus from his final Imprisonment.
He had been long enough in Rome to
have gained converts even in the
palace, long enough for news to get
to Philippi and bring response and
long enough for its bearerto have been
Ill and have made his recovery. Luke
was with him on his entry, when he
wrote to Philemon but is absent here
and the shadow of the trial has dark
ened until it colors many line of the
letter. 1t is then his final word to any
church and it centers in that great
study of the mind of Jesus that he is
urging upon the believers. There our
Lord appears in all the majesty of
association and equality with Jehovah
and yet His mind was not that of
prizing this as possession but as an
opportunity. His obligation was
measured by His power. Some Phil
ippians were dividing the work be-
cause Euodia and Syntyche were hold
ing places as prizes. Jesus gave up
His place, and the action grew out of
the attitude of mind He possessed.
And it drove on to the slavery of flesh
in which were fettered the strength
that had flung worlds into place so
that he was tired enough to drop
many times. And death was accepted
also, even that of the Cross, as He
stepped into the place not of slave
merely but of criminal slave. Pauls
heart would have broken if he had
been compelled to stop there, And the
world would be doomed if that were
the close of the record. He who has
only Christ upon cross is already
defeated in the battle of character. If
a world or church or an individual
stays at a cross life has departed;
real place can never be realized. But
the pen run on. There's magnificent
Wherefore" and the crowning follows
"God highly exalted Him it is the
only way by which any follower will
reach his throne.

resultant from his Lords mind and
let them look at it. The two figures
are similar tho they are not equal. A
circle is always a circle whatever its
diameter. Paufs might be meagre
enough while his Lords was infinite
but he would yet point to his own and
say, Look, it is like His" He had
had place and had been proud of it yet
he is seen divesting himself of its
race pride that had linked him with
the blood Of kings, Of it's religious
pride that linked it with the hoIiest
Of its leaders, of its accomplishment
pride in its defense Of the ancient
/ faith. All was cast aside that he
might share the life Of Jesus in its
privations and in its service and at
tain unto that crowned, resurrection
body that was not fettered by flesh
limitations, that the mind might know
Him Whose mind he was letting be-
come his own. "Be we imitators of
me-" was the word he could add and
to those proud Roman Philippians,
gloryng in their citizenship in the
Empire he said, "Our citizenship is in
heaven" the mind of heaven is to be
the measure of our thinking, achiev-
ing, glorying, attaining.
THE JOY RESULT LETTER
All things are seen in this letter as
resulting from thinking in accord
with the mind of Jesus. think on
these things" points on the "The
God of peace shall be with you" If
the mind is occupied with thoughts of
goodness, of loveliness, Of worth in
men and their works then there will
come the comradeship of God Who is
always thinking good of men. 1t was
the attitude of Paul toward the bitter
est of his bounding Jewish enemies
and even bleeding from the blows Of
the mob he said, "Zealous for God
even as We all are" and he could say
in his darkest hour, "The Lord stood
by me-" There is no other road to CO.
operation with God and men than that
of lovingly thinking the best of them.
| Another result running all thru the
letter is the joy that is constantly be-
ing mentioned. Jesus had it under the
shadow of the cross and promised
that that of His disciples should "be
full" Paul had sung in that old Jail
and now in Rome still sings his joy
in Jesus and the proclaiming of His
: Gospel even in those who hate him.
Rejoice, and again | say, rejoice" is
Paul's final word to this church of his
love and to all the churches.

Some Embarrassment

The landward face of the Rock of

Queen of SPANS Chair"
This name has it's origin in a 1e-
gend of the great siege. 1t is said
that the queen of Spain took up a
position on this height, vowing she
would not leave it tall she saw the
Spanish flag flying over the Rock of
Gibraltar. A report of the royal
lady's situation ultimately reached

thousand dollars, and whenever
there are checks amounting to ten

| Will write another for a thousand
dollars. and l am prepared to write
up to twenty thousand dollars to-

thousand dollars will be counted in
this Big Gift Fund. There is being
raised one million dollars outside of
this Fund by the churches and
parishes. This is the Big Gift Fund,
and donations smaller than one
thousand dollars we are asking you
to put il the regular Denomina-

matching the gifts that amount to
one thousand dollars or more. 1t is
my hope that we will leave here with
two hundred thousand dollars in the
Big Gifts Fund to be used this year.
Il want it distinctly understood
that it is the mind of all of those
who are working with me that this
money is to be used in the building of
the Kingdom of God now and none
of it is to be funded for the next
generation to quarrel about. In
other words, those Of us that are
heart and soul in this movement
will be glad to find that this has all
been used judiciously by the time
the General Convention meets next
fall. This will show us that the
Trustees of the Universalist Church
