Life-Study of Philippians: Messages 43-62 | 
Blurb cont'd... Forbearance is the totality of the proper Christian life. It is the all-inclusive virtue of Christ. To be forbearing is to live and magnify Christ. It is the means for man to fulfill God's threefold purpose-in one's own life, one's family life, and one's church life. I never saw this before. The lack of forbearance in my life reveals just how much Christ I lack! 😂 A spat with my hubby over $$ showed how much anxiety is in me!
2 Cor 4:16-17. ...we faint not; but though our outer man is being consumed, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For the momentary lightness of the affliction worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.
Blown away by the truths covered in this short little book. Anxiety is the totality of human life with its source from Satan to thwart the fulfillment of God's purpose. Forbearance is its opposite...more to come...
The title is actually "A Life Full of Forbearance but without Anxiety." It is kind of like the Cliff notes version of the Life-Study of Philippians. Wow, I am SUPER blessed that I chose to read this book next, given that so many other books were grabbing my interest. It is such a timely word for the Christian today. I know lots of people on here have different religious or spiritual views, but this is an absolute MUST read for God's followers.
