MountainVicar on Nostr: Philippians 4:13 — ‘I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me’ — ...
Philippians 4:13 — ‘I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me’ — is probably the most misquoted verse in the Bible. Athletes tattoo it for victory, motivational speakers slap it on success memes, others for success in whatever they do. But read the context (Phil 4:11-13): Paul is saying he’s learned to be content in any circumstance. Abundance or hunger, plenty or need, because Christ gives him strength to endure it all. Not a promise of unlimited achievement. A declaration of supernatural contentment amid hardship. It is about enduring lows. #Biblestr #ChristIsKing #Memestr
