Philippians 2:8

2:8 He humbled himself,

by becoming obedient to the point of death

– even death on a cross!

Philippians 4:12

4:12 I have experienced times of need and times of abundance. In any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of contentment, ¹  whether I go satisfied or hungry, have plenty or nothing.

[4:12]  ¹ tn The words “of contentment” are not in the Greek text, but are implied by Paul’s remarks at the end of v. 11.
