Much of what is called "Christian" teaching today emphasizes the way to emotional peace and physical comfort. In contrast, Paul commends the Philippians for being partners in the faith with him, and encourages them to remain united by the faith, so that they may live for the faith. Paul teaches his readers to seek first the kingdom of God, even if it leads to great suffering and hardship. He says that he can be content under all circumstances by the strength that Christ gives. Instead of using the Christian life as an excuse or a platform to pursue our own interests, this letter from Paul teaches a Christianity that promotes and pursues Christ's interests.
