What is it then? at any rate, in every way, whether in pretext or in truth, Christ is announced; and in this I rejoice, yea, also I will rejoice;

but if to live in flesh is my lot, this is for me worth the while: and what I shall choose I cannot tell.

Only conduct yourselves worthily of the glad tidings of the Christ, in order that whether coming and seeing you, or absent, I may hear of what concerns you, that ye stand firm in one spirit, with one soul, labouring together in the same conflict with the faith of the glad tidings;

because for the sake of the work he drew near even to death, venturing his life that he might fill up what lacked in your ministration toward me.

but what things were gain to me these I counted, on account of Christ, loss.

What ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, these things do; and the God of peace shall be with you.
