Greetings Charis! This is an excellent question. I think the only way to determine the pattern is to examine the context of the chapter. Paul's primary concern in this chapter are the Judaizers (3:2), who are changing the Gospel. He tells the Philippians to "watch out" for these false teachers. Note the similarity to his command in 3:17 to "take note" of those who live correctly. So, I would say that the pattern Paul referred to is the pattern of correct teaching that he gave them when he led them to Christ. Thus, the Philippians are being told to note those who agree with Paul's pattern of teaching, and watch out for those who deviate from the Gospel of Grace. p.s. - I've always been intrigued by your screen name. I have a daughter named Charissa. Her name is derived from the Greek word 'charis,' which means "Grace." So Grace to you Charis, Tim Moran |

Dear Tim, Good answer! I hope to talk more about the patterns that God has provided for us, his church. I will post later. Now, I must be off to church. My Sunday morning happens 13 or more hours before (most of) the rest of you :-) Charis has been my 'handle' for a number of years. Charissa is a beautiful name! Blessings to your daughter. BTW, grace is 'Megumi' in Japanese, a common girl's name among Christians here. In Jesus' name, charis |
