Psalms 84:10
84:10 Certainly spending just one day in your temple courts is better
than spending a thousand elsewhere.
I would rather stand at the entrance to the temple of my God
than live in the tents of the wicked.
Matthew 6:33
6:33 But above all pursue his kingdom
and righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
Acts 20:24
20:24 But I do not consider my life
worth anything
to myself, so that
I may finish my task
and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the good news
of God’s grace.
Philippians 1:20
1:20 My confident hope
is that I will in no way be ashamed
but that with complete boldness, even now as always, Christ will be exalted in my body, whether I live or die.
Philippians 1:1
Salutation
1:1 From Paul and Timothy, slaves of Christ Jesus, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with the overseers and deacons.
Philippians 3:7-9
3:7 But these assets I have come to regard as liabilities because of Christ.
3:8 More than that, I now regard all things as liabilities compared to the far greater value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things – indeed, I regard them as dung!
– that I may gain Christ,
3:9 and be found in him, not because I have my own righteousness derived from the law, but because I have the righteousness that comes by way of Christ’s faithfulness
– a righteousness from God that is in fact
based on Christ’s
faithfulness.
