Verse
Philippians - ch 1 v 21 - 30
- For to me, to live is Christ; and to die is gain.
- And if to live in the flesh, that is to me the fruit of labour, and what I shall choose I know not.
- But I am straitened between two: having a desire to be dissolved and to be with Christ, a thing by far the better.
- But to abide still in the flesh, is needful for you.
- And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide, and continue with you all, for your furtherance and joy of faith:
- That your rejoicing may abound in Christ Jesus for me, by my coming to you again.
- Only let your conversation be worthy of the gospel of Christ: that, whether I come and see you, or, being absent, may hear of you, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind labouring together for the faith of the gospel.
- And in nothing be ye terrified by the adversaries: which to them is a cause of perdition, but to you of salvation, and this from God:
- For unto you it is given for Christ, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer for him.
- Having the same conflict as that which you have seen in me, and now have heard of me.
