| 1 | Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus; To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the overseers and deacons: | Ro 1:1 1Co 1:1 |
| 2 | Grace to you, and peace from God, our Father, and the Lord, Jesus Christ. | Ro 1:7 2Co 1:2 1Pe 1:2 |
| 3 | I thank my God whenever I remember you, | Ro 1:8 Ro 1:9 Ro 6:17 1Co 1:4 |
| 4 | always in every request of mine on behalf of you all making my requests with joy, | Php 1:9-11 Ro 1:9 Eph 1:14-23 1Th 1:2 |
| 5 | for your fellowship in furtherance of the gospel from the first day until now; | Php 1:7 Php 4:14 Ac 16:15 Ro 11:17 Ro 12:13 Ro 15:26 1Co 1:9 2Co 8:1 Eph 2:19-22 Eph 3:6 Col 1:21-23 Phm 1:17 Heb 3:14 2Pe 1:1 1Jn 1:3 1Jn 1:7 |
| 6 | being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ. | 2Co 1:15 2Co 2:3 2Co 7:16 2Co 9:4 Ga 5:10 2Th 3:4 Phm 1:21 Heb 10:35 |
| 7 | It is even right for me to think this way on behalf of all of you, because I have you in my heart, inasmuch as, both in my bonds and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers with me of grace. | 1Co 13:7 1Th 1:2-5 1Th 5:5 Heb 6:9 Heb 6:10 |
| 8 | For God is my witness, how I long after all of you in the tender mercies of Christ Jesus. | Ro 1:9 Ro 9:1 Ga 1:20 1Th 2:5 |
| 9 | This I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and all discernment; | Php 3:15 Php 3:16 Jb 17:9 Pr 4:18 Mt 13:31-33 2Co 8:7 1Th 3:12 1Th 4:1 1Th 4:9 1Th 4:10 2Th 1:3 Phm 1:6 1Pe 1:22 |
| 10 | so that you may approve the things that are excellent; that you may be sincere and without offense to the day of Christ; | Isa 7:15 Isa 7:16 Am 5:14 Am 5:15 Mic 3:2 Jn 3:20 Ro 2:18 Ro 7:16 Ro 7:22 Ro 8:7 Ro 12:2 Ro 12:9 |
| 11 | being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God. | Php 4:17 Ps 1:3 Ps 92:12-14 Isa 5:2 Lk 13:6-9 Jn 15:2 Jn 15:8 Jn 15:16 Ro 6:22 Ro 15:28 2Co 9:10 Ga 5:22 Ga 5:23 Eph 5:9 Col 1:6 Col 1:10 Heb 12:11 Jm 3:17 Jm 3:18 |
| 12 | Now I desire to have you know, brothers, that the things which happened to me have turned out rather to the progress of the gospel; | Ac 21:28-36 Ac 22:1-30 Ac 28:1-31 |
| 13 | so that my bonds became revealed in Christ throughout the whole praetorian guard, and to all the rest; | Ac 20:23 Ac 20:24 Ac 21:11-13 Ac 26:29 Ac 26:31 Ac 28:17 Ac 28:20 Eph 3:1 Eph 4:1 Eph 6:20 Col 4:3-18 |
| 14 | and that most of the brothers in the Lord, being confident through my bonds, are more abundantly bold to speak the word of God without fear. | Php 4:1 Col 4:7 |
| 15 | Some indeed preach Christ even out of envy and strife, and some also out of good will. | Php 1:16 Php 1:18 Ac 5:42 Ac 8:5 Ac 8:35 Ac 9:20 Ac 10:36 Ac 11:20 1Co 1:23 2Co 1:19 2Co 4:5 1Ti 3:16 |
| 16 | The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, thinking that they add affliction to my chains; | Php 1:10 2Co 2:17 2Co 4:1 2Co 4:2 |
| 17 | but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel. | Php 1:7 Ro 1:13-17 1Co 9:16 1Co 9:17 Ga 2:7 Ga 2:8 1Ti 2:7 2Ti 1:11 2Ti 1:12 2Ti 4:6 2Ti 4:7 Lk 21:14 Ac 22:1 Ac 26:1 Ac 26:24 2Ti 4:16 |
| 18 | What does it matter? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed. I rejoice in this, yes, and will rejoice. | Ro 3:9 Ro 6:15 1Co 10:19 1Co 14:15 |
| 19 | For I know that this will turn out to my salvation, through your supplication and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, | Ro 8:28 1Co 4:17 1Pe 1:7-9 |
| 20 | according to my earnest expectation and hope, that I will in no way be put to shame, but with all boldness, as always, now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life, or by death. | Ps 62:5 Pr 10:28 Pr 23:18 Ro 8:19 |
| 21 | For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. | Php 1:20 Php 2:21 1Co 1:30 Ga 6:14 Col 3:4 |
| 22 | But if to live in the flesh, this will bring fruit from my work; then I don`t make known what I will choose. | Php 1:24 2Co 10:3 Ga 2:20 Col 2:1 1Pe 4:2 |
| 23 | But I am in a dilemma between the two, having the desire to depart and be with Christ, for that is very far better. | 2Sa 24:14 1Th 2:1 1Th 2:13 Lk 12:50 2Co 6:12 |
| 24 | Yet, to remain in the flesh is more needful for your sake. | Php 1:22 Php 1:25 Php 1:26 Jn 16:7 Ac 20:29-31 |
| 25 | Having this confidence, I know that I will remain, yes, and remain with you all, for your progress and joy in the faith, | Php 2:24 Ac 20:25 |
| 26 | that your rejoicing may abound in Christ Jesus in me through my presence with you again. | Php 2:16-18 Php 3:1 Php 3:3 Php 4:4 Php 4:10 So 5:1 Jn 16:22 Jn 16:24 2Co 1:14 2Co 5:12 2Co 7:6 |
| 27 | Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ, that, whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the gospel; | Php 3:18-21 Eph 4:1 Col 1:10 1Th 2:11 1Th 2:12 1Th 4:1 Tit 2:10 2Pe 1:4-9 2Pe 3:11 2Pe 3:14 |
| 28 | and in nothing frightened by the adversaries, which is for them a proof of destruction, but to you of salvation, and that from God. | Isa 51:7 Isa 51:12 Mt 10:28 Lk 12:4-7 Lk 21:12-19 Ac 4:19-31 Ac 5:40-42 1Th 2:2 2Ti 1:7 2Ti 1:8 Heb 13:6 Rev 2:10 |
| 29 | Because it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer on his behalf, | Ac 5:41 Ro 5:3 Jm 1:2 1Pe 4:13 |
| 30 | having the same conflict which you saw in me, and now hear is in me. | Jn 16:33 Ro 8:35-37 1Co 4:9-14 1Co 15:30-32 Eph 6:11-18 Col 2:1 1Th 2:14 1Th 2:15 1Th 3:2-4 2Ti 2:10-12 2Ti 4:7 Heb 10:32 Heb 10:33 Heb 12:4 Rev 2:10 Rev 2:11 Rev 12:11 |
