Feelings and Longings

Paul unashamedly expressed his longing for the Philippians, who remained faithful to him and the Gospel even in his absence. With Jesus as the standard and source of such affection, Paul revealed his passion through his prayers. As Alistair Begg walks us through the apostle’s appeals to God, he warns that Christian love can go astray if it is not properly founded on Scripture. When we study His Word, however, our responses will be molded and framed by God’s will.
