Eph 6:24 Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ with incorruptible love.
Phil 1:1 Paul and Timothy, bond-servants of Christ Jesus, ¶ To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, including the overseers and deacons:
Phil 1:2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Phil 1:3 ¶ I thank my God in all my remembrance of you,
Phil 1:4 always offering prayer with joy in my every prayer for you all,
Phil 1:5 in view of your participation in the gospel from the first day until now.
Phil 1:6For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.
Phil 1:7 For it is only right for me to feel this way about you all, because I have you in my heart, since both in my imprisonment and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers of grace with me.
Phil 1:8 For God is my witness, how I long for you all with the affection of Christ Jesus.
Phil 1:9 And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in real knowledge and all discernment,
Phil 1:10 so that you may approve the things that are excellent, in order to be sincere and blameless until the day of Christ;
Phil 1:11 having been filled with the fruit of righteousness which comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
Phil 1:12 ¶ Now I want you to know, brethren, that my circumstances have turned out for the greater progress of the gospel,
Phil 1:13 so that my imprisonment in the cause of Christ has become well known throughout the whole praetorian guard and to everyone else,
Phil 1:14 and that most of the brethren, trusting in the Lord because of my imprisonment, have far more courage to speak the word of God without fear.
Phil 1:15 Some, to be sure, are preaching Christ even from envy and strife, but some also from good will;
Phil 1:16 the latter do it out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel;
Phil 1:17 the former proclaim Christ out of selfish ambition rather than from pure motives, thinking to cause me distress in my imprisonment.
Phil 1:18 What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed; and in this I rejoice. ¶ Yes, and I will rejoice,
Phil 1:19 for I know that this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayers and the provision of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
