Paul and Timothy, bond-servants of Christ Jesus (the Messiah, the Anointed),
To all the saints (God’s people) in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, including the overseers and deacons:
Grace to you and peace [inner calm and spiritual well-being] from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
I am convinced of this, that the one who began a good action among you will bring it to completion by the Day of the Messiah Jesus.
For God is my witness,
so that you may be able to choose what is best and be pure and blameless until the day when the Messiah returns,
having been filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus the Messiah so that God will be glorified and praised.
As a result, it has become clear to the whole imperial guard and to everyone else that I am in prison for preaching about the Messiah.
Some, it is true, are [actually] preaching Christ out of envy and rivalry [toward me—for no better reason than a competitive spirit or misguided ambition], but others out of goodwill and a loyal spirit [toward me].
The former proclaim the Messiah because they are selfishly ambitious and insincere, thinking that they will stir up trouble for me during my imprisonment.
But so what? Just this that in every way, whether by false or true motives, the Messiah is being proclaimed. Because of this, I rejoice and will continue to rejoice.
for I know [with confidence] that this will turn out for my deliverance and spiritual well-being, through your prayers and the [superabundant] supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ [which upholds me].
It is my own eager expectation and hope, that [looking toward the future] I will not disgrace myself nor be ashamed in anything, but that with courage and the utmost freedom of speech, even now as always, Christ will be magnified and exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.
For to me, to go on living is the Messiah, and to die is gain.
Indeed, I cannot decide between the two. I have the desire to leave this life and be with the Messiah, for that is far better.
Then your rejoicing in the Messiah Jesus will increase along with mine when I visit with you again.
The only thing that matters is that you continue to live as good citizens in a manner worthy of the gospel of the Messiah. Then, whether I come to see you or whether I stay away, I may hear all about you that you are standing firm in one spirit, struggling with one mind for the faith of the gospel,
For you have been given the privilege for the Messiah's sake not only to believe in him but also to suffer for him.
Therefore, if there is any encouragement in the Messiah, if there is any comfort of love, if there is any fellowship in the Spirit, if there is any compassion and sympathy,
Have the same attitude among yourselves that was also in the Messiah Jesus:
Then every tongue in one accord, will say that Jesus the Messiah is Lord, while God the Father praising.
as you hold firmly to the word of life. Then I will be proud when the Messiah returns that I did not run in vain or work hard in vain.
For the others [who deserted me after my arrest] all seek [to advance] their own interests, not those of Jesus Christ.
because he came close to death for the work of the Messiah by risking his life to complete what remained unfinished in your service to me.
For it is we who are the circumcision we who worship in the Spirit of God and find our joy in the Messiah Jesus. We have not placed any confidence in the flesh,
But whatever things were assets to me, these I now consider a loss for the sake of the Messiah.
What is more, I continue to consider all these things to be a loss for the sake of what is far more valuable, knowing the Messiah Jesus, my Lord. It is because of him that I have experienced the loss of all those things. Indeed, I consider them rubbish in order to gain the Messiah
and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the Law, but one that comes through the faithfulness of the Messiah, the righteousness that comes from God and that depends on faith.
I want to know the Messiah what his resurrection power is like and what it means to share in his sufferings by becoming like him in his death,
Not that I have already obtained it [this goal of being Christlike] or have already been made perfect, but I actively press on
I keep pursuing the goal to win the prize of God's heavenly call in the Messiah Jesus.
For I have often told you, and now tell you even with tears, that many live as enemies of the cross of the Messiah.
But [we are different, because] our citizenship is in heaven. And from there we eagerly await [the coming of] the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ;
Then God's peace, which goes far beyond anything we can imagine, will guard your hearts and minds in union with the Messiah Jesus.
And my God will fully supply your every need according to his glorious riches in the Messiah Jesus.
Greet every saint who is in union with the Messiah Jesus. The brothers who are with me send their greetings to you.
May the grace of the Lord Jesus, the Messiah, be with your spirit! Amen.
