Philippians 2:17-18 Beyond Teaching and Motivation to Example and Experience

You have probably heard it said, ‘Do as I say do not do as I do.’ NONSENSE! That sentiment is the opposite of discipleship and was antithetical to the ministry of the Apostle Paul. Paul has instructed the Philippians toward humility and Christian love in Philippians 2:1-11, and now in Philippians 2:17-18 he points to a faithful Christian as an example: himself! May we all walk in such a way that we can say with the Apostle Paul, ‘Be followers of me even as I am a follower of Christ’ (I Corinthians 11:1).
