Philippians 2:1-3

Expanded Bible

2 [^LTherefore,] ·Does your life in Christ give you strength? [^LIf there is any encouragement in Christ…] ·Does his love comfort you? [^L…if any comfort from (his) love…] ·Do we share together in the Spirit? [^L…if any fellowship/sharing of the Spirit…] ·Do you have mercy and kindness? [^L…if any mercy/affection and kindness/compassion…] ² ·If so […then], ·make me very happy [^Lfulfill/complete my joy] by ·having the same thoughts [being like-minded/of one mind], sharing the same love, and having one ·mind [heart; soul] and ·purpose [goal; mind]. ³ When you do things, do not let ·selfishness [rivalry; selfish ambition] or pride be your guide. Instead, be humble and give more ·honor [regard; value] to others than to yourselves.
