This devotional pairs with workout 2 in Finding Joy at soulstrengthfit.com
Notice Paul’s opening word in this passage (in the NIV translation). “Therefore” is a connecting word, and he’s linking his hymn of praise to Christ in vv6-11 to instructions on how to apply the example of Christ’s humble obedience to their lives.
He calls the Philippians to “work out” their salvation.
This may initially sound like he is suggesting that salvation comes by works rather than by saving grace, but this couldn’t be farther from the truth. Reread vv12-13. What keywords do you see that make it clear that salvation does not come through works?
