Read in context

Philippians 1:24–28 · Berean Standard Bible

24 But it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body.

25 Convinced of this, I know that I will remain and will continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith,

26 so that through my coming to you again your exultation in Christ Jesus will resound on account of me.

27 Nevertheless, 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 one spirit, contending side by side for the faith of the gospel,

28 without being frightened in any way by those who oppose you. This is a clear sign of their destruction but of your salvation, and it is from God.
