25 Convinced of this, I know that I will remain, and I will continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith, 26so that through my being with you again your joy in Christ Jesus will overflow on account of me.Ģ7 Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ.
Yet what shall I choose? I do not know! 23 I am torn between the two: I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far 24 but it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body.
22 If I am to go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labor for me. Standing Firm in the Struggle Philippians 1:21-30 NIVĢ1 For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain. I hope you have a wonderful day at your church.
