This morning is the first of our Ladies Bible Study! We are hoping to study Philippians together. I have just been working on the next set of questions for next week.. but just so you can join us, here are the questions!
Chapter 1

1. What is the general information we are given at the start of this letter?
2. What do we know about the church at Philippi, and give references.
3. What does Paul say to them and about them in his introduction to the rest of the letter? Verse 1-5.
4. What is meant with the good work in verse 6, and find references.
5. How would you summarise verse 6-11?
6. What fruits do you think of when you read verse 11?
7. What does Paul tell them about his state of affairs? Verse 12-23.
8. What does the Bible tell us about the furtherance of the Gospel, verse 12? Think of the word ‘spread’ if furtherance doesn’t give you references…
9. How did some try to hurt Paul and the furtherance of the Gospel, and what does Paul say about it? Verse 15-19.
10. What is Paul’s outlook on life? Verse 20-24.
11. How does he encourage the Christians in Philippi? Verse 24-30.
12. In verse 28 he tells them to not be terrified by anything… Find references and grounds for this courage.

I hope you enjoy thinking about these questions, and the thing is to apply it all the time! That is what we do when we get together!

I will have to go for now, as I have things to do this morning!
