Philippians 1:5; Philippians 1:7; Philippians 1:16; Philippians 1:27

5 because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now,

7 It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart and, whether I am in chains or defending and confirming the gospel, all of you share in God’s grace with me.

16 The latter do so out of love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of the gospel.

27 Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Then, whether I come and see you or only hear about you in my absence, I will know that you stand firm in the one Spirit, striving together as one for the faith of the gospel
