Philippians 1:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 And I am persuaded of this same thing, that he that hath begun this good work in you, will perform it until the [a]day of Jesus Christ,
7 As it becometh me so to judge of you all, because I have you in remembrance, that both in my [b]bands, and in my defense, and confirmation of the Gospel you all were partakers of my [c]grace.
8 [d]For God is my record, how I long after you all from the very heart root in Jesus Christ.
