Philippians 1:27-2:4 (Epistle)

27
Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel,
28
and not in any way terrified by your adversaries, which is to them a proof of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that from God.
29
For to you it has been granted on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake,
30
having the same conflict which you saw in me and now hear is in me.
1
Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy,
2
fulfill my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.
3
Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.
4
Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.
