What the Bible says about Paul's Desire to Glorify Christ
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Philippians 1:20-21 Paul's earnest desire was to glorify Christ in all circumstances. His desire to glorify Christ superseded all personal interests, including being released from prison and spared from death. Paul intensely hoped and trusted that, despite the severe trials he was undergoing, he would persevere with boldness—even to death—to the glory of God. He declares that his sole purpose for living was to glorify Christ. Paul's aim was not get. His purpose, to which he devoted himself with passion and zeal, was to give everything to glorify God. He understood that, if it was God's will, there was great advantage in dying above that of living. Bill Onisick To Live, We Must Die Related Topics: Glorifying God | Perseverance
