Philippians 4:5
_ _ moderation from a Greek root, “to yield,” whence yieldingness [Trench]; or from a root, “it is fitting,” whence “reasonableness of dealing” [Alford], that considerateness for others, not urging one’s own rights to the uttermost, but waiving a part, and thereby rectifying the injustices of justice. The archetype of this grace is God, who presses not the strictness of His law against us as we deserve (Psalms 130:3, Psalms 130:4); though having exacted the fullest payment for us from our Divine Surety. There are included in “moderation,” candor and kindliness. Joy in the Lord raises us above rigorism towards others (Philippians 4:5), and carefulness (Philippians 4:6) as to one’s own affairs. Sadness produces morose harshness towards others, and a troublesome spirit in ourselves.
_ _ Let ... be known that is, in your conduct to others, let nothing inconsistent with “moderation” be seen. Not a precept to make a display of moderation. Let this grace “be known” to men in acts; let “your requests be made to God” in word (Philippians 4:6).
_ _ unto all men even to the “perverse” (Philippians 2:15), that so ye may win them. Exercise “forbearance” even to your persecutors. None is so ungracious as not to be kindly to someone, from some motive or another, on some occasion; the believer is to be so “unto all men” at all times.
The Lord is at hand The Lord’s coming again speedily is the grand motive to every Christian grace (James 5:8, James 5:9). Harshness to others (the opposite of “moderation”) would be taking into our own hands prematurely the prerogatives of judging, which belongs to the Lord alone (1 Corinthians 4:5); and so provoking God to judge us by the strict letter of the law (James 2:12, James 2:13). |
Philippians 4:5
Let your gentleness Yieldingness, sweetness of temper, the result of joy in the Lord. Be known By your whole behaviour. To all men Good and bad, gentle and froward. Those of the roughest tempers are good natured to some, from natural sympathy and various motives; a Christian, to all. The Lord The judge, the rewarder, the avenger. Is at hand Standeth at the door. |
Philippians 4:5
(4) Let your (e) moderation be known unto all men. (5) The Lord [is] at hand.
(4) The second is, that taking all things in good part, they behave themselves moderately with all men.
(e) Your quiet and settled mind. (5) The taking away of an objection: we must not be anxious because of impatience, seeing that God is at hand to give us help in time for all our miseries. |

Matthew 6:25 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on.

Sufficient unto the day [is] the evil thereof. Luke 6:29-35 And unto him that smiteth thee on the [one] cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloke forbid not [to take thy] coat also. ...

Luke 12:22-30 And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. ... For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. Luke 21:34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and [so] that day come upon you unawares. 1 Corinthians 6:7 Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather [suffer yourselves to] be defrauded? 1 Corinthians 7:29-31 But this I say, brethren, the time [is] short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none; ... And they that use this world, as not abusing [it]: for the fashion of this world passeth away. 1 Corinthians 8:13 Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend. 1 Corinthians 9:25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they [do it] to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. Titus 3:2 To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, [but] gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men. Hebrews 13:5-6 [Let your] conversation [be] without covetousness; [and be] content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. ... So that we may boldly say, The Lord [is] my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me. 1 Peter 1:11 Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.

Matthew 24:48-50 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; ... The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for [him], and in an hour that he is not aware of, 1 Thessalonians 5:2-4 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. ... But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. 2 Thessalonians 2:2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Hebrews 10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some [is]; but exhorting [one another]: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. James 5:8-9 Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh. ... Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be condemned: behold, the judge standeth before the door. 1 Peter 4:7 But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. 2 Peter 3:8-14 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day [is] with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. ... Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless. Revelation 22:7 Behold, I come quickly: blessed [is] he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book. Revelation 22:20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
