Read in context

Philippians 1:27–30 · Berean Standard Bible

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.

29 For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for Him,

30 since you are encountering the same struggle you saw I had, and now hear that I still have.
