“according to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.”
Philippians 1:20 KJV
Paul reveals this sure point for us, “No matter what, I will continue to hope and passionately cling to Christ, so that He will be openly revealed through me before everyone’s eyes. So I will not be ashamed! In my life or in my death, Christ will be magnified in me.” With the deepest and intense yearning and with the concentrated desire we abandon all other interests, and with outstretched hands in expectation and with uncovered face, we passionately cling to Christ. The accurate account of the magnificence of Christ is incarnate in us - whether we live or die, it makes no difference. Christ defines our life; death cannot threaten or diminish that. Let Christ be magnified in us. Hallelujah!
