For the Philippians what did a revived concern at length look like practically?
Observations:
First, never let your poverty and lack of money be a reason to not show concern through giving.
Secondly, consider what cause we are talking about having a revived concern for - the greatest cause, advancing the Gospel!
Thirdly, consider what God’s divine perspective is on our giving.
a. First, from God’s perspective our giving is a pleasing sacrifice to Him.
b. Second, from God’s perspective our giving is is an ETERNALLY REWARDING INVESTMENT.
c. Thirdly, from God’s perspective our GIVING is ACCOMPANIED with A PROMISE. You meet the needs of others, God will meet your needs.
Sadly this concern the Philippians showed was a RARE ACT OF KINDNESS compared to most “churches”.
