27 Only conduct yourselves as it becomes the Gospel of Christ; so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your matters that you continue in one spirit and in one mind, striving together for the faith of the Gospel.
28 And be frightened in nothing by your adversaries (which is to them a proof of destruction - but to you of salvation - and this from God!).
29 For to you it is given concerning Christ that not only should you believe in Him, but also to suffer concerning Him,
30 having the same fight which you saw in me and now hear of in me.
2 Therefore, if there is any encouragement in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any compassion and affection,
2 fulfill my joy; so that you are like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord and of one judgment.
3 So that nothing is done through self-interest or empty pride. But that in humility, everyone thinks others better than himself.
4 Do not be preoccupied with your own things, but rather with the things of others.
5 Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus;
6 Who, being in the form of God, did not eagerly desire equality with God as a prize.
7 But He emptied Himself and took on the form of a servant (and the likeness of a man, having been made).
8 He humbled Himself and became obedient to the death - even the death of the cross.
9 Therefore, God has highly exalted Him and given Him a Name above every Name.
10 That at the Name of Jesus, every knee should bow: in Heaven, and on Earth, and under the Earth.
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is the Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
12 Therefore, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed me - not only in my presence, but now much more so in my absence - work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
13 For it is God who works in you - both in your will and in your works - according to His good pleasure.
14 Do all things without grumbling or disputing,
15 so that you may be blameless and pure children of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a perverted and crooked nation (among whom you shine as lights in the world),
16 Hold forth the word of life, so that I may rejoice on the day of Christ that I have not run for nothing or labored for nothing.
17 Indeed, and though I am being poured out as a drink offering upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all!
18 And likewise also, you be glad and rejoice with me!
