Freely you Received - Freely give

David Falk

How do the Father, Son and Holy Spirit work and live? It is an interesting question to reflect on. The apostle Paul’s statement to the Philippian church, concerning their participation in the fellowship of giving and receiving, gives us a clue. ‘You yourselves also know, Philippians, that at the first preaching of the gospel, after I left Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving but you alone.’ Phil 4:15. Paul was saying to the Philippians that they had caught his ethos of giving and receiving. They recognized the motivation of a true Christian community is to live as God Himself lives.
