This is how we have come to know love: He laid down his life for us. We should also lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.

I will most gladly spend and be spent for you. If I love you more, am I to be loved less?

But even if I am poured out as a drink offering on the sacrificial service of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you.

For I want very much to see you, so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you,that is, to be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith, both yours and mine.

Obey your leaders and submit to them, since they keep watch over your souls as those who will give an account, so that they can do this with joy and not with grief, for that would be unprofitable for you.

My children, I am again suffering labor pains for you until Christ is formed in you.

Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ Jesus, sends you greetings. He is always wrestling for you in his prayers, so that you can stand mature and fully assured in everything God wills.

Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother: To Philemon our dear friend and coworker,

We have spoken openly to you, Corinthians; our heart has been opened wide.We are not withholding our affection from you, but you are withholding yours from us.I speak as to my children; as a proper response, open your heart to us.

Working together with him, we also appeal to you,“ Don’t receive the grace of God in vain.”

You learned this from Epaphras, our dearly loved fellow servant. He is a faithful minister of Christ on your behalf,

For God is my witness, how deeply I miss all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus.

Brothers and sisters, my heart’s desire and prayer to God concerning them is for their salvation.

For I have no one else like-minded who will genuinely care about your interests;

Listen and pay attention. Do not be proud, for the LORD has spoken.Give glory to the LORD your God before he brings darkness, before your feet stumble on the mountains at dusk. You wait for light, but he brings darkest gloom and makes total darkness.But if you will not listen, my innermost being will weep in secret because of your pride. My eyes will overflow with tears, for the LORD’s flock has been taken captive.

I know that when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ.

I speak the truth in Christ— I am not lying; my conscience testifies to me through the Holy Spirit—that I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart.For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the benefit of my brothers and sisters, my own flesh and blood.

So then, my dearly loved and longed for brothers and sisters, my joy and crown, in this manner stand firm in the Lord, dear friends.

We proclaim him, warning and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone mature in Christ.

But I considered it necessary to send you Epaphroditus— my brother, coworker, and fellow soldier, as well as your messenger and minister to my need—since he has been longing for all of you and was distressed because you heard that he was sick.

A centurion’s servant, who was highly valued by him, was sick and about to die.

except that in every town the Holy Spirit warns me that chains and afflictions are waiting for me.But I consider my life of no value to myself; my purpose is to finish my course and the ministry I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of God’s grace.
