Greeting

Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the overseers and deacons:

so that in me you may have ample cause to glory in Christ Jesus, because of my coming to you again.

Christ's Example of Humility

So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy,

Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus,

Righteousness Through Faith in Christ

Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you is no trouble to me and is safe for you.

For we are the circumcision, who worship by the Spirit of God and glory in Christ Jesus and put no confidence in the flesh—

and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which comes through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God that depends on faith—

I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

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

And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Final Greetings

Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me greet you.
