Php Philippians, chapter Epistle to the Philippians, chapter 2
If, then, any exhortation [is] in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of [the] Spirit, if any yearnings and mercies, Col 3:12fulfill my joy, that yöu may mind the same thing—having the same love—of one soul—minding the one thing, Rom 15:5; Php 3:16nothing in rivalry or vainglory, but in humility of mind counting one another more excellent than yourselves— Luk 14:11; Rom 12:10do not each look to yöur own, but each also to the things of others. 1Co 10:24For let this mind be in yöu that [is] also in Christ Jesus, Mat 11:29who, being in the form of God, thought [it] not something to be seized to be equal to God, 2Co 4:4; Col 1:15but emptied Himself, having taken the form of a servant, having been made in the likeness of men, Psa 22:6; Isa 49:6; Mat 20:28and having been found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself, having become obedient to death—even death of a cross, Mat 26:39; Heb 2:17for this reason, also, God highly exalted Him, and gave to Him a Name that [is] above every name, Mat 28:18; Heb 1:4that in the Name of Jesus every knee may bow—of heavenlies, and earthlies, and what are under the earth— Isa 45:23; Rom 14:11; Rev 5:14and every tongue may confess that Jesus Christ [is] LORD, to the glory of God the Father. Jhn 13:13; 1Co 8:6So that, my beloved, as yöu always obey, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out yöur own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who is working in yöu both to will and to work for His good pleasure. 2Co 3:5; Heb 13:21Do all things without murmurings and deliberations, 1Pe 4:9that yöu may become blameless and pure children of God, unblemished in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom yöu appear as luminaries in the world, Pro 4:18; Mat 5:14holding forth the word of life, for rejoicing to me in regard to [the] Day of Christ, that I did not run in vain, nor did I labor in vain; Php 4:1but if I also am poured forth on the sacrifice and service of yöur faith, I rejoice and am glad with yöu all, 2Ti 4:6because of this yöu also rejoice and are glad with me. And I hope, in the Lord Jesus, to send Timotheus to yöu quickly, that I also may be of good spirit, having known the things concerning yöu, Act 16:1for I have no one like-minded, who will sincerely care for the things concerning yöu, for the whole seek their own things, not the things of Christ Jesus, 1Co 10:24and yöu know his proof, that as a child [serves] a father, he served with me in regard to the good news; Act 16:2I indeed hope to send him, when I may see through the things concerning me—immediately; and I trust in the LORD that I will also come quickly myself. And I thought [it] necessary to send to yöu Epaphroditus—my brother and fellow-workman and fellow-soldier, and yöur apostle and servant to my need, seeing he was longing after yöu all, and in heaviness, because yöu heard that he ailed, for he also ailed near to death, but God dealt kindly with him, and not with him only, but also with me, that I might not have sorrow on sorrow. The more eagerly, therefore, I sent him, that having seen him again yöu may rejoice, and I may be less sorrowful; receive him, therefore, in the LORD, with all joy, and hold such in honor, 1Th 5:12because on account of the work of the Christ he drew near to death, having hazarded life that he might fill up yöur deficiency of service to me.
