Description

• Thomas Albert Bland was the Professor of Christian Ethics and Sociology at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. The service begins with organ music (0:00-5:18). There is a Scripture reading and a moment of prayer (5:19-7:56). The choir sings a song of worship (7:57-10:08). There is a Scripture reading from Philippians 1 and context is given for the passage (10:09-12:00). Bland gives the context for the passage from Philippians (12:01-13:55). Bland shares that Paul desired to communicate the importance of love and knowledge, giving examples of practical use of knowledge, such as distinguishing between the real work of the church and institutional maintenance, and between ephemeral and the abiding (13:56-27:51). There is a benediction to conclude the service (27:52-28:25).
