So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the pretorian army, and to all the rest; and many of the brethren in the Lord, being confident through my bonds, are bold to speak the word of God more fluently without fear. Some indeed through envy and strife, and some through good will, are preaching Christ: the latter from divine love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel: the former from self-seeking are proclaiming Christ insincerely, thinking that they will add affliction to my bonds. For what is it? moreover that in every place, whether in pretext or in truth, Christ is proclaimed; and I rejoice in this, yes, and I will rejoice. For I know that this will turn out to me unto salvation, through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, according to my earnest expectation and hope, that I shall be ashamed in nothing, but with all boldness, as always, even now Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life, or by death. For Christ is my life, and death is my gain. But if to live in the flesh, this shall be to me the fruit of the work, indeed I know not what I shall ask.
