“I'm not saying that I have this all together, that I have it made. But I am well on my way, reaching out for Christ, who has so wondrously reached out for me. Friends, don't get me wrong: By no means do I count myself an expert in all of this, but I've got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning us onward—to Jesus. I'm off and running, and I'm not turning back.” - The Apostle Paul, Philippians 3:12-14

11 1. Progress 生命的長進 Philippians 1:6 being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. 腓立比書 1:6 我深信那在你們心裡動了善工的，必成全這工，直到耶穌基督的日子。

12 1. Progress 生命的長進 Philippians 3:12-14 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers, 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, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.  

13 1. Progress 生命的長進 腓立比書 3:12-14 這不是說我已經得著了，已經完全了；我乃是竭力追求，或者可以得著基督耶穌所以得著我的。弟兄們，我不是以為自己已經得著了；我只有一件事，就是忘記背後，努力面前的，向著標竿直跑，要得神在基督耶穌裡從上面召我來得的獎賞。

14 2. Purpose 神國的目標 Philippians 1:11 filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God. 腓立比書 1:11 並靠著耶穌基督結滿了仁義的果子，叫榮耀稱讚歸與神。

15 2. Purpose 神國的目標 Philippians 1:12, 18 Now I want you to know, brothers, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel. But what does it matter? The important thing is that in every way, whether from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice.

16 2. Purpose 神國的目標 腓立比書 1:12, 18 弟兄們，我願意你們知道，我所遭遇的事更是叫福音興旺

17 2. Purpose 神國的目標 Philippians 1:22-25 If I am to go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labor for me. Yet what shall I choose? I do not know! I am torn between the two: I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far; but it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body. Convinced of this, I know that I will remain, and I will continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith.

18 2. Purpose 神國的目標 腓立比書 1: 但我在肉身活著，若成就我工夫的果子，我就不知道該挑選甚麼。 我正在兩難之間，情願離世與基督同在，因為這是好得無比的。然而，我在肉身活著，為你們更是要緊的。我既然這樣深信，就知道仍要住在世間，且與你們眾人同住，使你們在所信的道上又長進又喜樂. . .

19 3. Presence 上帝的同在 Philippians 3:7-8 But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ. . .  

20 3. Presence 上帝的同在 腓立比書 3:7-8 只是我先前以為與我有益的，我現在因基督都當作有損的不但如此，我也將萬事當作有損的，因我以認識我主基督耶穌為至寶。我為他已經丟棄萬事，看作糞土，為要得著基督. . .  

21 3. Presence 上帝的同在 Philippians 4:6-7, 13 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. I can do everything through him who gives me strength.

22 3. Presence 上帝的同在 腓立比書 4:6-7, 13 應當一無罣慮，只要凡事藉著禱告、祈求，和感謝，將你們所要的告訴神。神所賜、出人意外的平安必在基督耶穌裡保守你們的心懷意念。 我靠著那加給我力量的，凡事都能做。

23 4. Partners 屬靈的夥伴 Philippians 2:2-4
4. Partners 屬靈的夥伴 Philippians 2: make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.

24 4. Partners 屬靈的夥伴 腓立比書 2:2-4 你們就要意念相同，愛心相同，有一樣的心思，有一樣的意念，使我的喜樂可以滿足。凡事不可結黨，不可貪圖虛浮的榮耀；只要存心謙卑，各人看別人比自己強。各人不要單顧自己的事，也要顧別人的事。
