I like the commentaries by Robert Gromacki. Was reading the
one on Philippians: STAND UNITED IN JOY. Read Phil. 1:20. He reminded me of 5
elements needed to magnify Christ:
- Boldness. It is not easy to speak for Christ. May we speak up for Christ with boldness (cf. Eph. 6:20).
- Consistency. We are not to vacillate in our speaking for Christ. We need to be consistent in all areas of life, not just our speech.
- In cooperation and empowerment with the Holy Spirit. We cannot do it in the flesh.
- The sphere is the body. We magnify Christ by Holiness and purity in life.
- Faithfully magnify Him in life and death. Someone has pointed out it is not how you started that counts, but how you finish.
