| | The Value of Christ and His Righteousness | No more, my God, I boast no more | | | | English | Isaac Watts | | 8.8.8.8 | 1 Kings 18:21I notice there's an issue with this request: the hymn title "Philippians 5:7-19" appears to be incorrect, as the book of Philippians only has 4 chapters. The text content seems to reference Philippians 3:7-9, where Paul counts all things as loss compared to knowing Christ.
However, I cannot find a meaningful connection between this hymn (about counting worldly achievements as loss and trusting in Christ's righteousness alone) and 1 Kings 18 (which describes Elijah's confrontation with the prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel).
These passages address fundamentally different themes - 1 Kings 18 is about God's power demonstrated through fire from heaven and the defeat of false prophets, while this hymn is about personal salvation through Christ's merits rather than one's own works.
Could you verify that the correct scripture reference was entered? There may be a data error in the hymn-to-scripture mapping. | | | | | [No more, my God, I boast no more] | | | | | | | 212 | 1 | 36622 | 1 |
