^11 (A)If we have sown spiritual things among you, is it too much if we reap material things from you? ¹² If others share this rightful claim on you, do not we even more?

Nevertheless, ^(B)we have not made use of this right, but we endure anything ^(C)rather than put an obstacle in the way of the gospel of Christ.

^20 (A)To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews. To those under the law I became as one under the law (though not being myself under the law) that I might win those under the law. ²¹ To ^(B)those outside the law I became ^(C)as one outside the law (not being outside the law of God but ^(D)under the law of Christ) that I might win those outside the law. ^22 (E)To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. ^(F)I have become all things to all people, that ^(G)by all means I might save some.

Barnabas and Saul Sent Off

13 Now there were in the church at Antioch ^(A)prophets and ^(B)teachers, ^(C)Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger,^[a] Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen a lifelong friend of ^(D)Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. ² While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, ^(E)the Holy Spirit said, ^(F)“Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul ^(G)for the work to which I have called them.” ³ Then after fasting and ^(H)praying they laid their hands on them and ^(I)sent them off.

God's Provision

¹⁰ I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at length ^(A)you have revived your concern for me. You were indeed concerned for me, but you had no opportunity. ¹¹ Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be ^(B)content. ¹² I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and ^(C)hunger, abundance and ^(D)need. ¹³ I can do all things ^(E)through him who strengthens me.

¹⁵ And you Philippians yourselves know that ^(A)in the beginning of the gospel, when I left Macedonia, ^(B)no church entered into partnership with me in giving and receiving, except you only.
