“行事為人與基督的福音相稱”竖配。許多人希望福音可以來(lái)適應(yīng)我們的生活，然而保羅此處提到福音當(dāng)是我們的生活要去符合的一個(gè)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)里逆。在一定程度上进胯，多數(shù)人只希望福音可以縮小到能夠適用于我們當(dāng)下的處境就好；事實(shí)上原押，我們微小的生命需要擴(kuò)展到可以適應(yīng)福音信息的宏偉：為了挽救靈魂而去愛(ài)和犧牲胁镐。
具體來(lái)說(shuō)，我們需要成長(zhǎng)诸衔，以至于可以與弟兄姊妹合一（即使是那些常與我們意見(jiàn)相左的）（27節(jié)）盯漂；我們需要成長(zhǎng)，以至于可以擁有面對(duì)驚嚇和傷害的勇氣（28節(jié)）笨农；我們也需要為基督經(jīng)歷苦難（29節(jié)）就缆。如此，我們就成為人前的見(jiàn)證谒亦，也為神所見(jiàn)證竭宰。別人會(huì)因此知道，究竟是我們?cè)诶酶Ｒ舫扇覀兊纳罘菡校€是福音在使用我們成就天國(guó)的事工切揭。保羅在這里鼓勵(lì)我們，讓福音來(lái)重寫我們的生命锁摔，因?yàn)楦Ｒ襞涞美．?dāng)我們開(kāi)始使自己的行事為人與基督的福音相稱，神要親自做工來(lái)拓展我們的生命鄙漏。
Philippians 1: 27-30
To be worthy of the gospel. Many of us want the gospel to fit our lives, but Paul here considers the gospel as the standard to which our lives must pattern itself to. In some sense, while most of us want the full gospel to shrink and apply into our circumstances, the reality is that our small lives need to grow and fit into the magnificence of the gospel message: of love and sacrifice unto the saving of souls. Verse 27 says that our lives need to grow into unity with others (even the ones we disagree with) and into courage as we face those who we fear (verse 28), to grow as we experience suffering (verse 29). This becomes a testimony to others (verse 28) and yourself and to our God. Others will know whether we are the ones who use the gospel, or the ones who let the gospel use us. Paul is suggesting that we allow the gospel to rewrite our very lives because it is more than worthy to elevate us. God is doing the work to elevate us if we allow the gospel to be our standard.
