The Christian who is consumed by the person and work of Christ lives a worshipful, active, participatory life for the sake of the gospel and the glory of Christ. Paul shows us an example of two servants who lived in such a way.
- Timothy - The Compassionate Companion (v19-24)
- Timothy demonstrates a genuine concern for others (v19-21)
- Timothy demonstrates a proven faithfulness as a partner of the gospel (v22-24)
- Epaphroditus - The Sacrificial Servant (v25-30)
- Epahproditus demonstrates perseverance in the difficulties of ministry (v25-30)
- Epahphroditus demonstrates selflessness in his service in ministry (v25-30)
