According to 4:17, Paul is trying not to sound ungrateful for the gift. He is, however, most excited for what?
In this letter, we have seen how joy and peace come down to a close relationship with Jesus Christ. According to 4:11-12, what is the result of a close relationship with Jesus?

Do you think Paul understood Proverbs 30:7-9? How are you at this?
