The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ
This phrase emphasizes the unmerited favor and kindness that comes from Jesus Christ. Grace is a central theme in the New Testament, highlighting the gift of salvation and the empowerment for Christian living. The Apostle Paul frequently begins and ends his letters with a mention of grace, underscoring its importance in the believer's life. The grace of Jesus is a reflection of His sacrificial love and is foundational to the Christian faith, as seen in Ephesians 2:8-9, where salvation is described as a gift of grace through faith.

be with your spirit.
This part of the verse speaks to the personal and intimate nature of the relationship between Christ and the believer. The "spirit" here refers to the inner being or the core of a person, indicating that grace is not just an external blessing but something that transforms and sustains the believer from within. This echoes Paul's other writings, such as in Galatians 6:18, where he similarly concludes with a blessing of grace upon the spirit. The phrase suggests a continual presence and influence of Christ's grace, aligning with the promise of the Holy Spirit's indwelling presence in the life of a believer, as seen in John 14:16-17.

Persons / Places / Events
1. Paul
The apostle who authored the letter to the Philippians. He wrote this epistle while imprisoned, expressing joy and encouragement to the believers in Philippi.

2. Philippians
The recipients of the letter, the Christian community in Philippi, a city in Macedonia. They were known for their generosity and partnership in the gospel.

Teaching Points
Understanding Grace
Grace is unmerited favor from God, a gift that empowers and sustains believers. Reflect on how grace has been evident in your life.

The Role of Jesus Christ
Recognize Jesus as the source of grace. His life, death, and resurrection are the foundation of the grace we receive.

Spiritual Well-being
The phrase "be with your spirit" indicates a focus on inner spiritual health. Consider how you can nurture your spirit through prayer, scripture, and fellowship.

Community and Grace
Just as Paul extends grace to the Philippians, we are called to extend grace to others in our community. Think about ways you can show grace in your relationships.

Living in Grace
Embrace the grace of Jesus Christ in daily living. Let it influence your decisions, interactions, and outlook on life.(23) The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.--The true reading is, be with your spirit (as in Galatians 6:18; Philemon 1:25; 2Timothy 4:22). The reading of our version is the more ordinary form of salutation. In one form or another it is "the token in every Epistle" (2Thessalonians 3:17). The grace given by the Spirit of God is received in "the spirit" of man, but in order that the whole man, "body, soul, and spirit, be preserved blameless to the coming of the Lord Jesus" (1Thessalonians 5:23).

. . .

Verse 23. - The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen; read, with the best manuscripts, with your spirit. St. Paul begins with "grace" (Philippians 1:2), and ends with "grace." The gracious love of the Lord Jesus was the joy of his heart.
