Striving and Suffering for Christ

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,

fulfill my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.

Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.

The Humbled and Exalted Christ

Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus,

For I have no one like-minded, who will sincerely care for your state.

Therefore let us, as many as are mature, have this mind; and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal even this to you.

Nevertheless, to the degree that we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us be of the same mind.

whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame—who set their mind on earthly things.

Be United, Joyful, and in Prayer

I implore Euodia and I implore Syntyche to be of the same mind in the Lord.

and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
