Philippians 2




riversident@Philippians:2:1 @ IF there is any encouragement in Christ, any persuasive power in love, any fellowship in the Spirit, any sympathies and compassions,

riversident@Philippians:2:2 @ fill up my joy by having the same love, being of the same mind, thinking the same thing,

riversident@Philippians:2:3 @ doing nothing in a partisan or vainglorious way, but each modestly regarding the others as of more account than himself.

riversident@Philippians:2:4 @ Do not be each intent on his own interests, but also on the interests of others.

riversident@Philippians:2:5 @ Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus,

riversident@Philippians:2:6 @ who, though he was in the form of God, did not think that equality with God was something to be grasped,

riversident@Philippians:2:7 @ but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant and coming into the likeness of men,

riversident@Philippians:2:8 @ and when found in the condition of a man he humbled himself by becoming obedient even to death \'97 death on the cross.

riversident@Philippians:2:9 @ Therefore, God has highly exalted him and has graciously given him the name which is above every name,

riversident@Philippians:2:10 @ that at the name of Jesus every knee may bow, of beings in heaven and those on earth and those under the earth,

riversident@Philippians:2:11 @ and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

riversident@Philippians:2:12 @ So then, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with reverence and awe.

riversident@Philippians:2:13 @ For it is God who is working in you both the willing and the doing because of his kindness.

riversident@Philippians:2:14 @ Do everything without murmurings or disputings

riversident@Philippians:2:15 @ that you may be blameless and pure, children of God, spotless in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation among whom you shine as lights in the world,

riversident@Philippians:2:16 @ holding forth the message of life, so that on the day of Christ I can boast that I did not run in vain or labor in vain.

riversident@Philippians:2:17 @ But if I am poured out as a libation on your sacrificial offering of faith, I rejoice and share the joy of you all.

riversident@Philippians:2:18 @ In the same way you must rejoice and share my joy.

riversident@Philippians:2:19 @ But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, that I may be cheered by knowing about you.

riversident@Philippians:2:20 @ For I have no one likeminded with him who will so sincerely care for your interests.

riversident@Philippians:2:21 @ For all pursue their own aims, not those of Christ Jesus.

riversident@Philippians:2:22 @ But you know how he has been tested and how like a child with a father he has served with me in spreading the good news.

riversident@Philippians:2:23 @ So I hope to send him at once when I see how my affairs are going.

riversident@Philippians:2:24 @ And I trust in the Lord that I myself shall come quickly.

riversident@Philippians:2:25 @ I think it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow worker and fellow soldier, and your messenger and minister to my needs,

riversident@Philippians:2:26 @ since he longs for you all and is troubled because you have heard that he was sick.

riversident@Philippians:2:27 @ Indeed he was sick and near to death. But God had mercy on him, and not on him alone, but also on me, that I might not have sorrow upon sorrow.

riversident@Philippians:2:28 @ I send him the more readily that you may see him and rejoice again and I be less sorrowful.

riversident@Philippians:2:29 @ Receive him in the Lord with all joy and hold such men in honor,

riversident@Philippians:2:30 @ because for the work of Christ he was near to death, hazarding his life to complete the service you were not here to do for me.
