• Phil 1:15-30 : 15 It is true that some preach Christ out of envy and rivalry, but others out of goodwill. 16 The latter do so out of love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of the gospel. 17 The former preach Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing that they can stir up trouble for me while I am in chains. 18 What does it matter? Regardless, in every way—whether from false motives or in truth—Christ is proclaimed. And in this I rejoice. Yes, and I will continue to rejoice. 19 For I know that through your prayers and the provision of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, this will result in my deliverance. 20 My eager expectation and hope is that I will not be ashamed in anything, but that with all boldness, now as always, Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death. 21 For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain. 22 Now if I live on in the flesh, this means fruitful labor for me.

Then, whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear that you are standing firm in one spirit, striving together with one mind for the faith of the gospel. 28 And do not be frightened in any way by those who oppose you. This is a sign to them of their destruction, but of your salvation—and that from God. 29 For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe in him, but also to suffer for him, 30 since you are experiencing the same struggle you saw I had, and now hear that I still have.
