Rejoice, And Seek Increase Of The Gospel

                                          Philippians 1:12
                     "Understand, brethren, that the things which
                         happened unto me have fallen out rather
                              unto the furtherance of the gospel:"

        It was of comparative indifference to Paul no matter what happen to him on this side of life, as long as the gospel progressed. To Paul the extension of the gospel meant the growing glory of Jesus.  He was prepared to live or die, so that Jesus might be magnified.  He was willing to live and suffer for Christ a little longer before going to heaven, if that would better serve the cause he loved.  Oh that we might experience a similar absorption in the interests of the gospel
        It is clear that death is not an unconscious sleep.  It is gain! It is being loosed from anchorage of this world, that the soul may go forth on the broad ocean of God’s love.  It does not interrupt our conscious fellowship with the Lord. "It makes us alive with Him"! The moment of absence here is the moment of presence there. To die is therefore gain.  But while we are here let's spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and the gift of eternal life He holds for all people.  We are only "one breath away" just one breath until the========we+++++to Jesus!.
         Amen!!
