Philippians 1:16-21
16The latter do so from love because they know that I am placed here for the defense of the gospel.
17The former proclaim Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, because they think they can cause trouble for me in my imprisonment.
18What is the result? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is being proclaimed, and in this I rejoice. Yes, and I will continue to rejoice,
19for I know that this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayers and the help of the Spirit of Jesus Christ.
20My confident hope is that I will in no way be ashamed but that with complete boldness, even now as always, Christ will be exalted in my body, whether I live or die.
21For to me, living is Christ and dying is gain.
