Fulfilled of the Lord

3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.

4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.

5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

To All the Saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi 2:2-5

At long last, Paul has determined in whatsoever state he is in therein then to be content in the end. It is a principle he is lived by certainly and one you would see spoken of again and again. Perhaps he need not the latest and est that much for certain. It seemed there remained to him though only Christ and a portion. Is not that all he is for each of his children, strength enough for the day and too some hope to be found along the way. This like-mindedness then is not of man perhaps there in the end but rather of Christ in the midst of his people with whom the fulness of the Godhead so bodily dwells being made up of these then as well. There is also love to be seen that is there in the text. Perhaps it sounds rather far off as most ideas are at the moment. It is at times like these that the love of our God is not expressed so clearly as we would hope it to be or much less just for his mercies there then instead. Certainly, love helps us endure all things, hope all things much rather and so on until failure is certainly no longer an option. Perhaps once again it is just the love of the Father in the hearts and lives of all men. Yes, God loves us sure but he had also sent his own Son to die for all men. This lets you know just how seriously the Lord is treating the sin, the disorders, and whatever else lays there within man. This love does not merely overlook the flaws that are visible but rather goes straight down into the heart of a person. It is a love indeed that changes the hearts and lives then as you would see. You might not see it just yet but rest assured when he is done there will no longer be a taking after then with nothing the same ever again at least not in his sight at the end. It seems there is a few other things in this house of the Lord though that is not just for show. Indeed, it is almost as fruit rather, an expression of his Spirit inside us that makes it all visible. It is almost enough to make all people just get together in love perhaps from opposing sides of the isle so to speak with differing opinions and belief systems much rather. It seems there is some accordance needed indeed, a coming together on some issues as unto the Lord. Then too there is the mind of the matter which above all should be subjected as unto the Lord God our Maker at first. It is good indeed though to be remembered of him and so too trust and do his will on the matter. It is this remembering the Creator in the days of our youth so that when we grow old we might not have such trials and such grief. Consider then the bond which holds all men together again is just that of Christ and his person. It is his mind is not it that helps us keep an eternal perspective of those. He is the one before all strivings cease, the earth and everything contained therein thence flees away. So then too it is a humility generally speaking that is entirely caught up in nothing save but for that of God and his glory. This eternal perspective much rather is just as unto his Son. With that in mind, lets continue on with all of Christ and the Lord walking with him rather as with one then accord. That is to say there is nothing to separate us from him there once again save but for death and eternity proper. Though you know with him having won the battle once for all of our sin, there is nothing but only of him.
