1 the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the christians that are at Philippi, to the bishops, and to the deacons. 2 Grace and peace be with you from God our father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. 3 I thank God, for your remembrance of me, 4 and I never pray without praying for you all with joy, for your liberality to the gospel, 5 from the first day to the present time, being persuaded that 6 he who has begun this good work in you will bring it to perfection against the appearance of Christ, it is but just 7 I should have this opinion of you, being sensible you make the dispensation I am under a common concern, with respect to my confinement, and the defence and confirmation of the gospel. 8 for God is my witness, that I love you with a christian tenderness. Philippians 1:1-8, Mace New Testament. Public domain.
