Purposes of His Prayer

Purposes of His Prayer Philippians 1:10 Excerpt Paul stated two purposes for his prayer. The first is a near purpose:  to discern what is best;  and the second is a remote one: to  be pure and blameless until the day of Christ.  The idea of testing is clearly in view in the Greek word  dokimazō ,  translated “discern.” The testing is with a view to approving. The word was used in testing metals and coins, to determine whether they met the specified standards.  More Lightner, Robert P. “ Philippians .”   The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures .
