Philippians 1:1-11
Thanksgiving
"Paul
and Timothy, bond-servants of CHRIST JESUS,
To all
the saints in CHRIST
JESUS who are in Philippi, including the overseers
and deacons:
2 GRACE to you and PEACE from God our Father and THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.
3 I
thank my GOD in
all my remembrance of you,
4 always
offering prayer with joy in my every prayer for you all,
5 in
view of your participation in the gospel from the first day
until now.
6 For I am confident of this
very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the
day of CHRIST JESUS.
7 For it
is only right for me to feel this way about you all, because I have you in
my heart, since both in my imprisonment and in the defense and
confirmation of THE GOSPEL, you all are partakers
of grace with me.
8 For GOD is my witness,
how I long for you all with the affection of CHRIST JESUS.
9 And
this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in real
knowledge and all discernment,
10 so
that you may approve the things that are excellent, in order to be sincere
and blameless until the day of CHRIST;
11 having
been filled with the fruit of RIGHTEOUSNESS which comes through
JESUS CHRIST,
to the glory and praise of GOD."
