Philippians 1:15 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will: I. IT GIVES IMPULSE TO ALL TRUE MOTIVE POWER. From this sprung their "goodwill." II. IT IS KEEN IN PERCEIVING, EVEN IN CHAINS, THE WILL OF GOD. "Knowing that I am set." III. IT IS QUICK IN COOPERATING TO ACCOMPLISH THE WILL OF GOD WHEN KNOWN. IV. IT BINDS THE HEART IN SYMPATHY TO ALL WHO SUFFER IN THE DEFENCE OF THE GOSPEL. V. IT IS THE MIGHTIEST FORCE THAT MEN CAN WIELD FOR THE GOSPEL'S TRIUMPH. (G. G. Ballard.)
