Philippians 1:20

Paul Honors Christ Whether He Lives Or Dies

¹⁹ for I know that through your prayers and a bountiful supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ this will turn out for my spiritual welfare, ²⁰ in accordance with my eager expectation and hope that I shall never disgrace myself, but that now as always hitherto, by my all-conquering courage, whether by living or dying, Christ will be honored in me. ²¹ For to me living means Christ and dying brings gain.

Be Exalted

In Me

Messiah

No
