Through the Bible with Les Feldick
LESSON 3 * PART 3 * BOOK 39
Philippians 1:28–3:2
Now as we’ve been coming up through with our study of "Through the Bible" we’ve pretty much been going verse by verse in Paul writings, because you want to remember that Paul is the apostle of the Gentiles. Let’s begin with Phillipians 2:9.
"Wherefore (because of what we just explained in our last lesson how that Christ was the Eternal, all sufficient Omnipotent God of everything. Consequently wherefore) God (the Triune God) also hath highly exalted him, (God the Son) and given him a name which is above every name:"
"That at the name of Jesus every knee (from Adam to the last human being ever born) should bow, of things in heaven,..."
Yes the angels bow to Him because they’re beneath Him. Let’s look at Hebrews chapter 1 for a moment. Hebrews 1:7
8. But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, (declaring Christ as God again) is forever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom."
"And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; (He’s the Creator) and the heavens are the works of thine hands: 11. (now verse 13) But to which of the angels said he (God) at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?"
God the Son. He said it to Christ. And go on over into chapter 2, and verse 5.
Hebrews 2:5-8a
"For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to come, (angels don’t have that kind of power) whereof we speak. 6. But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? 7. Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownest him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands: 8. Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet...."
Why? Because He’s the God of glory, He’s the creator of everything, and when He humbled Himself and made Himself subjected to the death of the cross, that then set Him up to become even more the God of glory, and the God in whom we can place our trust. Iris, you can be turning to Acts chapter 4, verse 12, but for those of you here in the studio, let’s look at verse 10 and 11.
Philippians 2:10-11
Now coming back to Acts chapter 4, verse 12. In fact let’s go up to verse 10 to begin. This of course is Peter up in verse 8, filled with the Holy Spirit.
"Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him (Christ)doth this man stand here before you whole. (which Israel rejected)
Now verse 12 which fits so beautifully with Philippians.
Acts 4:12
Also always remember there is no other Book except this Bible that can tell the prophecies this Book can. Remember Paul always writes to believers. "For we are labourers together with God: ye (believers) are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building. 10. According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, (the head architect, the head contractor, that’s Paul) I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. Now for you and I as believers we have no problem bowing before the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, whether it’s on our knees in prayer or whether it’s in our mental attitude, we have no problem whatsoever kneeling before the Lord Jesus Christ.
The great empire builders, they’ll never bow their knee to the carpenter’s Son, but they will someday. Now we know from other Scriptures that the person of God will again be Jesus Christ. Now beginning again with verse 12 again.
Revelation 20:12
"And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened..."
Philippians 2:10-12a
"That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11. And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. 12. Wherefore,..."
Because all the sin of the world has been placed on Him, and consequently through the power of resurrection God has raised Him from the dead, and has declared Him to be the greatest name that anyone could ever hope to worship.
Philippians 2:12a
Now let’s stop a moment. Philippians 2:12a
Now reading on in verse 12.
Philippians 2:12b
So what does Paul mean when he says, "Work out your own salvation?" Now verse 13, and here is the clue.
Philippians 2:13
Now verse 14.
Philippians 2:14
"Oh would to God that you’d have left us in Egypt." A lot of times we’re not because we complain, "Why doesn’t God do this or that? Now verse 15.
Philippians 2:15
"That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons (children) of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, (now that hits home doesn’t?) among whom ye shine as lights in the world;"
Because we’ve become such a crooked and perverse nation. Like lights in a darkened world.
