Welcome to our Life Application Discussion area! Please share how you applied today's verses to your life so that others can be encouraged and challenged as we read God's Word together.
Here are a few suggestions for things that are most helpful:

Was there a command to obey that grabbed your attention? How do you intend to obey it today?
Did an aspect of God's character stick out to you? How did you respond to seeing this about God?
Did you find a warning you need to listen to? How can you listen to that warning today?
Is there a promise you were reminded to hold on to? How will you stand on that promise today?
Were you encouraged to do something for the Lord or others? What was it?

Please be aware that inflammatory comments or theological debates will be deleted. This discussion is for personal life application.

I used to joke about Philippians 1:21, usually before doing something dangerous. The joking isn't necessarily wrong, but there is a huge gap between the "gain" by Paul if he were to die in prison and the "gain" I would have if I were to die just going about life normally or doing something stupid. My gain would be personal, I would get to be with Christ. Watching the Insanity of God and reading Tortured for Christ really nailed in the fact that Paul's idea of gain isn't just getting to go to heaven, but the impact it will have on those around him who he would leave on earth. Dieing in prison, and never once cursing at the guards, always being loving to your last breath, is a testimony to the guards and the other prisoners and everyone who hears. Paul's idea of gain is focused on those around him, and how they would benefit and how the gospel would be spread both in his life and in his death.
