Philippians 1:20

Paul Honors Christ Whether He Lives Or Dies

¹⁹ For I know that it will result in my salvation through your prayers and a bountiful supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, ²⁰ in fulfilment of my eager expectation and hope that I shall never have reason to feel ashamed, but that by my perfect freedom of speech Christ will be glorified in me, now as always, either by my life or by my death. ²¹ For, with me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.

Be Exalted

In Me

Magnified in My Body
