CHRIST IS KING;
THE CHURCH HIS BRIDE
“Worthy are you to take the scroll and to open its seals, for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation and you have made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they shall reign on the earth.”
Drink Offerings
Our Works Are Wine
What does Paul mean when he compares himself and the Philippians to drink offerings? What does the Old Testament have to say about drink offerings, and how does it apply in the New Covenant?
In Philippians 2:17-18, Paul teaches us that the Christian can be glad and rejoice even in the most toilsome work because their service is a joyful drink offering poured out to the Lord Jesus Christ, and we share all share in drinking that wine with God at his table.
