Book 50 Philippians50:001:001 Paul and Timotheus, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the 50:001:002 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from 50:001:003 I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, 50:001:004 Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with 50:001:005 For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until 50:001:006 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a 50:001:007 Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I 50:001:008 For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the 50:001:009 And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more 50:001:010 That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be 50:001:011 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by 50:001:012 But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things 50:001:013 So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and 50:001:014 And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my 50:001:015 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some 50:001:016 The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing 50:001:017 But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence 50:001:018 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or 50:001:019 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your 50:001:020 According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in 50:001:021 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 50:001:022 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: 50:001:023 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, 50:001:024 Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you. 50:001:025 And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and 50:001:026 That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for 50:001:027 Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of 50:001:028 And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them 50:001:029 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to 50:001:030 Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to 50:002:001 If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any 50:002:002 Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, 50:002:003 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in 50:002:004 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on 50:002:005 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 50:002:006 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be 50:002:007 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form 50:002:008 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and 50:002:009 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a 50:002:010 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in 50:002:011 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is 50:002:012 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my 50:002:013 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of 50:002:014 Do all things without murmurings and disputings: 50:002:015 That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, 50:002:016 Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day 50:002:017 Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of 50:002:018 For the same cause also do ye joy, and rejoice with me. 50:002:019 But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus shortly unto 50:002:020 For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your 50:002:021 For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus 50:002:022 But ye know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, 50:002:023 Him therefore I hope to send presently, so soon as I shall see 50:002:024 But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly. 50:002:025 Yet I supposed it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my 50:002:026 For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, 50:002:027 For indeed he was sick nigh unto death: but God had mercy on 50:002:028 I sent him therefore the more carefully, that, when ye see him 50:002:029 Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold 50:002:030 Because for the work of Christ he was nigh unto death, not 50:003:001 Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same 50:003:002 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the 50:003:003 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, 50:003:004 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other 50:003:005 Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the 50:003:006 Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the 50:003:007 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for 50:003:008 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the 50:003:009 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which 50:003:010 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and 50:003:011 If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the 50:003:012 Not as though I had already attained, either were already 50:003:013 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one 50:003:014 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of 50:003:015 Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and 50:003:016 Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by 50:003:017 Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which 50:003:018 (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell 50:003:019 Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose 50:003:020 For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look 50:003:021 Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like 50:004:001 Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy 50:004:002 I beseech Euodias, and beseech Syntyche, that they be of the 50:004:003 And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women 50:004:004 Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. 50:004:005 Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at 50:004:006 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and 50:004:007 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall 50:004:008 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever 50:004:009 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and 50:004:010 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your 50:004:011 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in 50:004:012 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every 50:004:013 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. 50:004:014 Notwithstanding ye have well done, that ye did communicate 50:004:015 Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the 50:004:016 For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my 50:004:017 Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may 50:004:018 But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of 50:004:019 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches 50:004:020 Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen. 50:004:021 Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren which are 50:004:022 All the saints salute you, chiefly they that are of Caesar's 50:004:023 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. Previous Home Next |
*** END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK THE BIBLE, KING JAMES, B50 *** ****** This file should be named bib5010h.htm or bib5010h.zip ******* Corrected EDITIONS of our eBooks get a new NUMBER, bib5011h.htm VERSIONS based on separate sources get new LETTER, bib5010ah.htm This eBook was produced by David Widger Additional credits are noted in the header. Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we usually do not keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. We are now trying to release all our eBooks one year in advance of the official release dates, leaving time for better editing. Please be encouraged to tell us about any error or corrections, even years after the official publication date. Please note neither this listing nor its contents are final til midnight of the last day of the month of any such announcement. The official release date of all Project Gutenberg eBooks is at Midnight, Central Time, of the last day of the stated month. A preliminary version may often be posted for suggestion, comment and editing by those who wish to do so. Most people start at our Web sites at: http://gutenberg.net or http://promo.net/pg These Web sites include award-winning information about Project Gutenberg, including how to donate, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter (free!). Those of you who want to download any eBook before announcement can get to them as follows, and just download by date. This is also a good way to get them instantly upon announcement, as the indexes our cataloguers produce obviously take a while after an announcement goes out in the Project Gutenberg Newsletter. http://www.ibiblio.org/gutenberg/etext03 or ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/docs/books/gutenberg/etext03 Or /etext02, 01, 00, 99, 98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 92, 91 or 90 Just search by the first five letters of the filename you want, as it appears in our Newsletters. Information about Project Gutenberg (one page) We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work. The time it takes us, a rather conservative estimate, is fifty hours to get any eBook selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc. Our projected audience is one hundred million readers. If the value per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2 million dollars per hour in 2002 as we release over 100 new text files per month: 1240 more eBooks in 2001 for a total of 4000+ We are already on our way to trying for 2000 more eBooks in 2002 If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total will reach over half a trillion eBooks given away by year's end. The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away 1 Trillion eBooks! This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers, which is only about 4% of the present number of computer users. Here is the briefest record of our progress (* means estimated): eBooks Year Month 1 1971 July 10 1991 January 100 1994 January 1000 1997 August 1500 1998 October 2000 1999 December 2500 2000 December 3000 2001 November 4000 2001 October/November 6000 2002 December* 9000 2003 November* 10000 2004 January* The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation has been created to secure a future for Project Gutenberg into the next millennium.
