Philippians 1:21

Living Is Christ

²⁰ I will not be put to shame according to my earnest expectation and hope. With all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in me, whether by life or by death. ²¹ For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain. ²² If I live in the flesh this will bring fruit from my labor. I do not know what to choose.

In Me

To Die is Gain
