Paul and Timothy, bond-servants of Christ Jesus.
– Philippians 1:1
But you know of [Timothy’s] proven worth, that he served with me in the furtherance of the gospel like a child serving his father.
– Philippians 2:22
Serving as bond-servants requires three things: a stand, a commitment, and a proper labor. Our stand produces our commitment, and our commitment produces our labor.
Adapted from Philippians: “That I May Gain Christ,”
by Titus Chu, page 162.
