Questions pending

Series: "Humble Lights: Unity That Shines"

Text: Philippians 2:1–2

1 If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, 2 Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.

Questions:

1. Are You Encouraged by Your Union with Christ?

“If there is any encouragement in Christ…” (Phil. 2:1a)

Have you recently taken time to reflect on your position "in Christ"? Does your identity in Him shape how you treat others in the body of Christ? When conflict arises, do you respond as someone deeply encouraged by your Savior?

2. Are You Sharing the Comfort You've Received?

“…any comfort of love…” (Phil. 2:1b)

How have you experienced God’s comfort during trials? Are you passing that same comfort on to others in your church family—or are you isolating and withholding love? Who in your life needs to experience that comfort through you?

3. Are You Living in the Fellowship of the Spirit?

“…any fellowship of the Spirit…” (Phil. 2:1c)

Are you walking in step with the Spirit and building relationships with others who share that same Spirit? Is your church community marked by shared spiritual life or merely shared social activities?

4. Are You Showing Tender Affection and Mercy to Others?

“…any bowels and mercies…” (Phil. 2:1d)

Do you reflect God’s deep compassion toward your brothers and sisters in Christ? Is there someone you’ve been emotionally cold toward whom God is calling you to embrace with mercy and affection?

5. Are You Pursuing Reconciliation?

“Be likeminded, having the same love…” (Phil. 2:2a)

Is there a broken relationship in your life that needs healing? Are you obeying Jesus’ commands in Matthew 5 and 18 to pursue reconciliation whether you were the offender or the offended?

6. Are You Contributing to the Joy of Others in the Church?

“Fulfill my joy…” (Phil. 2:2a)

Are you making your pastors, leaders, and fellow members rejoice because of your unity and service—or are you a source of tension and disunity in the body?

7. Is Your Unity Driven by Internal Transformation or External Pressure?

“Being of one accord, of one mind…” (Phil. 2:2b)

Is your unity with others shaped by inward change from Christ, or by external conformity and performance? Are you allowing God to mold your heart so you align with others spiritually, not just behaviorally?

8. Are You Letting the Mind of Christ Shape Your Attitudes?

“Let this mind be in you…” (Phil. 2:5)

Are you daily seeking to adopt Christ’s mindset of humility and service? In moments of irritation or disagreement, do you stop and ask, “What attitude did Christ display, and how can I imitate it?”

9. Are You a Light in the Darkness—Together with the Church?

“…shine as lights in the world…” (Phil. 2:15)

Is your witness strengthened or dimmed by your unity with fellow believers? Are you pursuing Gospel partnership with your church as a visible light in a dark culture—or have you become isolated and dim?
