25 And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith,
26 that your glorying in Jesus Christ may be more abundant by my coming to you again.
27 Only let your conversation be as is worthy of the gospel of Christ, that whether I come and see you or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, unanimous, working together for the faith of the gospel,
28 and in nothing terrified by your adversaries, which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of saving health and that of God.
29 For unto you it is granted regarding Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake,
30 having the same conflict which ye saw in me and now hear to be in me.
