Philippians 1:25

23 ¹For I am hard-pressed between the two, having a ^adesire to depart and be with Christ, which is ^bfar better.

24 Nevertheless to remain in the flesh is more needful for you.

25 And being confident of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all for your progress and joy of faith,

26 that ^ayour rejoicing for me may be more abundant in Jesus Christ by my coming to you again.

Striving and Suffering for Christ

27 Only ^alet your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, ^bwith one mind ^cstriving together for the faith of the gospel,

28 and not in any way terrified by your adversaries, which is to them a proof of perdition, but¹ to you of salvation, and that from God.
