PAUL and Timothy, servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:

grace be unto you and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

being confident of this very thing, that he who hath wrought in you the good work will perfect it until the day of Jesus Christ:

For God is my witness, how earnestly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.

filled with fruits of righteousness, which by Jesus Christ are to the glory and praise of God.

For I know that this shall issue in my salvation through your prayers, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

that your glorying may abound in Christ Jesus for me by my coming again unto you.

Let the same sentiment of mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

that to the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of beings celestial and terrestrial, and infernal;

and every tongue should confess that the Lord Jesus [is] Messiah, to the glory of God the Father.

But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy shortly unto you, that I also may be refreshed in spirit, when I know your affairs.

For all seek their own interests, not those of Christ Jesus.

For we are the circumcision, who serve God in spirit, and glory in Christ Jesus, and put no confidence in the flesh.

Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the transcendently excellent knowledge of Jesus Christ my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but as offals of ordure, that I may gain Christ,

Not that I have already attained, or am now perfect: but I pursue, that I may overtake that for which also by his apprehension of me I am destined by Christ Jesus.

I press towards the mark for the prize of the divine calling from on high in Christ Jesus.

But our conversation is in heaven as its citizens, from whence also we are expecting the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ,

And the peace of God which surpasseth all comprehension, shall guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

But my God will fully supply all your want, according to his riches in glory, by Christ Jesus.

Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren that are with me salute you.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
