The Gospel Is Preached

12

Nowg1161 I wantg1014 you to knowg1097, brethreng80, that my circumstancesg3588g2596  ahave turnedg2064 out for the greaterg3123 progressg4297 of the  bgospelg2098,

13

sog5620 that my  1 aimprisonmentg1199 in the cause of Christg5547 has becomeg1096 wellg5318 knowng5318 throughoutg1722 the wholeg3650  2praetoriang4232 guardg4232 and to  beveryoneg3956 elseg3062,

14

and that mostg4183 of the  1brethreng80, trustingg3982 in the Lordg2962 because of my  2 aimprisonmentg1199, haveg5111  bfarg4057 moreg4057 courageg5111 to speakg2980 the wordg3056 of Godg2316 withoutg870 fearg870.

15

 aSomeg5100, to be sureg3303a, are preachingg2784 Christg5547 eveng2532  1from envyg5355 and strifeg2054, but someg5100 alsog2532  1from goodg2107 willg2107;

16

the latterg3303a do it out of loveg26, knowingg3609a that I am appointedg2749 for the defenseg627 of the  agospelg2098;

17

the formerg3588g1161 proclaimg2605 Christg5547  aout of selfishg2052 ambitiong2052  1ratherg3756 thang3756 from pureg55 motivesg55, thinkingg3633 to causeg1453 me distressg2347 in my  2 bimprisonmentg1199.

18

Whatg5101 theng1063? Onlyg4133 that in everyg3956 wayg5158, whetherg1535a in pretenseg4392 org1535a in truthg225, Christg5547 is proclaimedg2605; and in thisg3778 I rejoiceg5463.

Yesg235, and I will rejoiceg5463,

19

for I knowg3609a that thisg3778 will turng576 out for my  1deliveranceg4991  athroughg1223 your  2prayersg1162 and the provisiong2024 of  bthe Spiritg4151 of Jesusg2424 Christg5547,

20

accordingg2596 to my  aearnestg603 expectationg603 and  bhopeg1680, that I will not be putg153 to shameg153 in anythingg3762, but that with  callg3956 boldnessg3954, Christg5547 will eveng2532 nowg3568, as alwaysg3842, be  dexaltedg3170 in my bodyg4983,  ewhetherg1535a by lifeg2222 org1535a by deathg2288.

To Live Is Christ

21

For to me,  ato liveg2198 is Christg5547 and to dieg599 is gaing2771.

22

 1But ifg1487 I am to liveg2198 on in the fleshg4561, thisg3778 will mean  afruitfulg2590 laborg2041 for me; and I do not knowg1107  2whichg5101 to chooseg138.

23

But I am hard-pressedg4912 from bothg1417 directions, havingg2192 the  adesireg1939 to departg360 and  bbe with Christg5547, for that is veryg4183 muchg4183 betterg2909;

24

yetg1161 to remaing1961 on in the fleshg4561 is moreg316 necessaryg316 for your sakeg1223.

25

 aConvincedg3982 of thisg3778, I knowg3609a that I will remaing3306 and continueg3887 with you allg3956 for your progressg4297 and joyg5479  1in the faithg4102,

26

sog2443 that your  aproudg2745 confidenceg2745 in me may aboundg4052 in Christg5547 Jesusg2424 throughg1223 my comingg3952 to you againg3825.

27

Onlyg3440 conductg4176 yourselves in a mannerg516  aworthyg516 of the  bgospelg2098 of Christg5547, sog2443 that whetherg1535a I comeg2064 and seeg3708 you org1535a remaing548 absentg548, I will hearg191 of you that you are  cstandingg4739 firmg4739 in  doneg1520 spiritg4151, with oneg1520  1mindg5590  estrivingg4866 togetherg4866 for the faithg4102 of the gospelg2098;

28

in nog3367 wayg3367 alarmedg4426 by your opponentsg480--whichg3748 is a  asigng1732 of destructiong684 for them, but of salvationg4991 for you, and that too, from Godg2316.

29

For to you  ait has been grantedg5483 for Christ'sg5547 sakeg5228, not onlyg3440 to believeg4100 in Him, but alsog2532 to  bsufferg3958 for His sakeg5228,

30

experiencingg2192 the sameg846  aconflictg73 whichg3634  byou sawg3708 in me, and nowg3568 hearg191 to be in me.
