Philippians 2:15

Holding Fast To The Word Of Life

¹⁴ Do everything without grumbling and arguing, ¹⁵ so that you may be blameless and pure, children of God who are faultless in a crooked and perverted generation, among whom you shine like stars in the world. ¹⁶ Hold firmly to the message of life. Then I can boast in the day of Christ that I didn’t run or labor for nothing.
