Philippians 2:19-30
Paul’s trust was ultimately in the Lord Jesus, and so should it be for us! Many Christians are not trustworthy. They think only of themselves, and therefore, only pursue their own interests. The friends we fellowship with need to be, by virtue, a disciple of Christ. But, we cannot just make oneness happen, or simply order it to be so. Only friends with a heart for God will sincerely care for our well-being, and unite with us in furthering the Gospel message.
