READING – FACILITATES AN INFORMED SOCIETY

READING – FACILITATES AN INFORMED SOCIETY: I FOUND A WRIT ON THE BRITISH NEW TEN (£10) POUNDS NOTE!

“I DECLARE AFTER ALL THERE IS NO ENJOYMENT AS READING” – Jane Austen 1775 – 1817.

While relocating to UK years ago, one of my one time British friend and work colleagues in the Oil Sectors Industry said to me and family this statement:

“If you can READ – you CAN’T and WON’T get LOSS and live MISINFORMED; and you WON’T get cheated out so easily in life by any – meaning, INFORMATION is free there and available but you have to MAKE the CONSCIOUS effort to READ to KNOW and OWN IT”.

Honestly, he was very right indeed – And from the step down at the famous Heathrow Airport London, UK till date, I have found his statement and candid advice useful – finding READABLE signpost to almost everything in everywhere and everyway – there is INFORMATION available for almost everything, much more now with internet connectivity age. And indeed – it’s No wonder it’s called the “MOTHER AND HOME OF DEMOCRACY”.

However, I didn’t question all these years or found out FULL WELL why my Oil Sectors colleagues made such profound statement knowing I am EDUCATED and of course can READ while working together. But I found out recently a major LANDMARK while about paying for a service at the shop of which I have NEVER bothered to look at nor examined. I took a close examination of the money in my hand to pay for the service I have received. Written in a small print on the British Ten (£10) Pounds Note, is this inscription that will forever stay with me “I DECLARE AFTER ALL THERE IS NO ENJOYMENT AS READING” – Jane Austen 1775 – 1817. What an inspiring and empowering writ. Honestly, for such KNOWING as per the discovery that day, I changed my mind for once not to pay for the service received, with the cash note at hand, but paid instead with my debit card. It’s simply for such TREASURED INSCRIPTIONS that’s inspiring and empowering to TRIUMPH in life and grace. And it thus means so much to me also – the essence of READING that have defined and given triumph to an informed society that I’ve found myself dwelling.

It has REKINDLED me to now READ the more, ever than before though an Author in my own rights of books and literature publications; and especially, having a wife who does not welcome a wrongly spoken English at home. More so, in the words of my ever loving dear Mama who once said while getting me ready to be educated at School – “WE CAN’T ALL BE BLIND IN THIS HOUSE, SOMEBODY MUST READ AND WRITE – SO GO TO SCHOOL, AND SHE WILL PAY FOR IT”. I heard it and over again, I did left them that day with the mission as she said and later affirmed by my dad in same thoughts – to READ and WRITE, then the rest siblings followed suits and she paid along. Blessed she is, for her graciousnesss and gracefulness.

I challenge you today to see the NEED to READ. There’s TRIUMPH IN READING. Discovery gives recovery for self WORTH in all about LIFE and GODLY LIVING, especially for the Believer in Christ Jesus stead. AND YOU CAN START TODAY. For there’s no LIMIT to what you can BECOME, if you RESOLVE and make the NEEDED conscious effort to be INFORMED in that which you intend to embark on or are dreading at right now, knowing being INFORMED will make all DIFFERENCE in doing life and godly living.

PUT AN END AND AT BAY TO IGNORANCE BY READING. KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING EMANCIPATES, WHILE IGNORANCE IS DESTRUCTIVE AND CANCEROUS.

Down MEMORY Lane – THEN SAID I – HERE AM I – SEND ME LORD: Ministerial EARLY Days – The Humble Beginnings – 90’s!

“. . . 8 Also I heard the VOICE of the Lord, saying, Whom Shall I Send, and WHO WILL GO FOR US? Then said I, HERE AM I; SEND ME. 9 And he said, GO, and tell this people . . .” Isaiah 6:1-9.

“Go, STAND and SPEAK in the TEMPLE to the people ALL THE WORDS OF THIS LIFE” Acts 5:20.

Two wisdom statement that was made years ago in my journey of saying YES to God, that I read from a teaching magazine in my library of FAITH, is of two incredible women of great devotion to God’s calling upon their respective life’s with their husbands of gracious memories. The statement is relevant to me today as it was when I first read them and store the magazine in my library. And that has MADE me value history as layers that must be properly LAID because of the EFFECT that it defines for today, tomorrow and years untold. These statements makes up my framework of the down memory lane in life and grace to the glory of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“The relevance of HISTORY can only be determined by the INSTRUCTIONS we draw out from it to INFORM the DECISIONS of the

PRESENT and to FASHION out NEW PATHS for our TOMORROW” **Archbishop Mama Margaret Benson-IDAHOSA – (Archbishop, Church of God Mission International, Benin city, Nigeria).

“YESTERDAY was our TEACHER, TODAY is our  FRIEND and TOMORROW is our OPPORTUNITY” ** Dr Daisy OSBORN – (Osborn Foundation International, USA) of Blessed Memory.

Undeniable humble beginnings that have become a global insights and foresights in every respect.  Never a day of regret to the answer of the HEAVENLY mandate for the earthly affairs as His ambassador and representative under heaven, for the cause of humanity, in Christ Jesus stead. To say YES LORD TO YOUR WILL YEARS AGO, WORTH IT IN EVERY MEASURE FOR THEN, TODAY AND TOMORROW.

For we are not FOOLS, who chooses and prioritise the  call to take the CROSS daily and follow Him to the taking of the CROWN as would have been preferred by some. This have always been my ANSWER to those who question the Ministerial Call of the cross to their preferred crown for my Engineering field.

“For I am not ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER of God unto SALVATION to EVERY one that BELIEVETH; to the JEW first, and also to the GREEK. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God REVEALED from faith to faith: as it is written, The JUST shall LIVE by FAITH” Romans 1:16-17.

It’s worth REFLECTING now and always – for it keeps one focus from various distractions that abounds today. Thank you LORD God for the PRIVILEGE to be CALLED to SERVE in everyway in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

NO MATTER THE NEVERTHELESS AND THE NOTWITHSTANDING OF YOUR SITUATIONS TODAY

By Leave a Comment

NO MATTER THE NEVERTHELESS AND THE NOTWITHSTANDING OF YOUR SITUATIONS TODAY: STAY FAITHFUL IN PRAYERS – THERE’S AN ANSWER WITH GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, and NOT TO FAINT (GIVE UP, LOOSE HEARTS, BE WEARY) . . . 8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. NEVERTHELESS when the Son of man cometh, shall he find FAITH (FAITHFULNESS) on the earth?” Luke 18:1-18 Emphasis Mine.

Dear friend, be ASSURED and KNOW full well, that in Christ Jesus stead, no matter the NOTWITHSTANDING and the NEVERTHELESS you’ve found yourself at this very moment in life – You don’t need to FAINT, GIVE UP, BE WEARY, LOOSE HEARTS, BE UNFAITHFUL to the principles of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus because of your current challenges. You need to take the bull by the horns, knowing it’s in all goodness, graciousnesss and gracefulness for you to just stay FAITHFUL in PRAYERS – which is the CONSULTATION LIFELINE with God, until your ANSWERS comes.

THERE’S A MIRACLE for you in God’s BLESSEDNESS if you can take the needed and needful step of FAITH in God. For with God – ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE – [Matthew 19:26]. And ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE to you and to all Who BELIEVE God by FAITH in Christ Jesus stead – [Mark 9:23].

“But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is IMPOSSIBLE; but with God ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE” Matthew 19:26.

“Jesus said unto him, If thou canst BELIEVE, ALL THINGS are POSSIBLE to him that BELIEVETH” Mark 9:23.

Do you truly and earnestly BELIEVE the possibility God as Simon Peter fully Believe of God’s WORD to launch into the deep for a catch – the catch that comes on obeying Christ Jesus demands? [Luke 5:1-11]. Thus indicating that God will always COMMEND what He COMMAND. That should be your personal ANSWER to that QUEST you earnestly desire to turn around today no matter your situations. For we OUGHT to PRAY and not FAINT – and God seek a heart of FAITHFULNESS in all situations [Luke 18:1-8].

“. . . 4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, LAUNCH OUT INTO THE DEEP, AND LET DOWN YOUR NETS FOR A DRAUGHT. 5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have TOILED ALL THE NIGHT, AND HAVE TAKEN NOTHING: Nevertheless At Thy Word I WILL LET DOWN THE NET. 6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a GREAT MULTITUDE OF FISHES: and their NET BRAKE . . .” Luke 5:1-11.

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, and NOT TO FAINT (GIVE UP, LOOSE HEARTS, BE WEARY) . . . 8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. NEVERTHELESS when the Son of man cometh, shall he find FAITH (FAITHFULNESS) on the earth?” Luke 18:1-18/Emphasis Mine.

There are many occasions wherein we are at crossroads one way or the other. The natural thing to do in most cases is by tending to go down to Egypt because of the FAMINE of life as Isaac of Abraham of Genesis 26:1-6. But if you can take a stand on God’s WORD as he was instructed by God, therein he waxed great and went on to become very greater in the fulness of God’s BLESSEDNESS that took it’s hold in him as in Genesis 26:12-14 (Genesis 26).

There’s the need to stay FAITHFUL in PRAYERS no matter the nevertheless and the notwithstanding of your situations today; for there’s an ANSWER with God in Christ Jesus stead. Take the NOTWITHSTANDING and NEVERTHELESS position stand in PRAYERS, to deal with everything that stands in your part of BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

NEVERTHELESS when the Son of man cometh, shall he find FAITH (FAITHFULNESS) on the earth?” Luke 18:1-18 Emphasis Mine.

“I will therefore that MEN PRAY EVERY WHERE, LIFTING UP HOLY HANDS, WITHOUT WRATH AND DOUBTING . . . 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. 15 NOTWITHSTANDING she shall be SAVED in CHILDBEARING, if they continue in FAITH and CHARITY and HOLINESS with SOBRIETY” 1 Timothy 2:8-15.

“But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the FURTHERANCE OF THE GOSPEL; 13 so that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places; 14 and many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear. 15 Some indeed PREACH Christ even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH Christ of CONTENTION, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel. 18 What then? NOTWITHSTANDING, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice. 19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, 20 according to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death. 21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 22 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not. 23 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better: 24 NEVERTHELESS to abide in the flesh is more needful for you. 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 rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again” Philippians 1:12-26.

Further Not With Standing Scriptural Reading: James 2:14-26; 2 Timothy 4:14-18; Acts 24:1-9; Luke 10:1-24; Matthew 17:24-27; Matthew 11:7-15.

THE NEED TO PRAY

By Leave a Comment

THE NEED TO PRAY: PRAYING IS HUMBLING YOURSELF BEFORE GOD ON HIS WORD – AND KNEELING INDICATE PURPOSEFUL, WINNING, DOMINION, THRIVING, TRIUMPH, FULFILLING AND MORE!

“We should PRAY when we are in a PRAYING mood, for it would be sinful to neglect so fair an opportunity. We should PRAY when we are not in a PRAYING mood, for it would be dangerous to remain in so unhealthy a condition.”  – Charles Spurgeon.

There’s the NEED to PRAY and the NEED in making it your PERSONAL AND INESCAPABLE OBLIGATION and not SOMEONE else. Don’t be a PRAYER DISTRIBUTOR person and or COLLECTION CENTRE, but a KNEELING Believer in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. For KNEELING indicates – Winning, Dominion, Thriving, Victory,  Overcoming, Triumph and More Than CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

In the PRAYER acts of C. Spurgeon, I have met people with the URGED to PRAY but took the opportunity for granted for other activities, and had suffered the consequences of their spiritual neglects.

I’ve met also people who create no time to see praying or prayers as their SPIRITUAL responsibility and accountability, and have had the consequences of taking their spiritual responsibility and accountability for granted.

However, I’ve seen people who took time to PRAY when the urge to PRAY is done on them, and who also take PRAYERS and PRAYING as their personal spiritual responsibility and accountability and not someone else, even when the urge is not there; and through PRAYERS, they have averted adversities and kept at bay the ENEMY and COHORTS; and through PRAYERS, the good and goodness of God’s BLESSEDNESS have come their way and that of others they had prayed along for and with, quietly and or publicly.

Don’t take your act to PRAYERS and PRAYING for granted. Don’t make it someone else RESPONSIBILITIES AND ACCOUNTABILITY – make them yours. It’s time to know your God and be with Him in PRAYERS to keep the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay and have the heavens at your answer.

There’s is the need to PRAY – for PRAYING is humbling yourself before God on His WORD – and KNEELING indicate PURPOSEFULNESS, WINNING, DOMINION, THRIVING, TRIUMPH, FULFILLING and MORE THAN CONQUERORS in CHRIST JESUS stead.

“And in the morning, RISING up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there PRAYED” Mark 1:35.

“And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray. 29 AND AS HE PRAYED, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering” Luke 9:28-29.

“If I shut up heaven that there be NO RAIN, or if I command THE LOCUSTS to devour the land, or if I send PESTILENCE among my people; 14 if MY PEOPLE, which are CALLED by my name, shall HUMBLE themselves, and PRAY, and SEEK my face, and TURN from their wicked ways; then will I HEAR from heaven, and will FORGIVE their sin, and will HEAL their land. 15 Now mine EYES shall be open, and mine EARS attent unto the PRAYER that is MADE in this place” 2 Chronicles 7:13-15.

GOD IS FAITHFUL

GOD IS FAITHFUL: BEING FAITHFUL IS REWARDING!

Many times I have come across the QUEST for an ANSWER by some Believers who are genuine in their dedication and commitment toward God and toward men – burdened as to say  – if indeed being FAITHFUL, that’s is, FAITHFULNESS, is still REWARDING at all. Some of these people have been beaten and battered in life in many ways that the drive and passion to remain FAITHFUL seems deceptive, illusive and unrealistic to them in matters of  life and godly living.

And sometimes as a Pastor, you are almost drawn into these sentiments of people whose acts of FAITHFULNESS are shattered, when you are presented with the vivid facts of their encounters and experiences. Especially when you see matters of life in this light:

** A woman being beaten up and maimed by the temperamental and untampered husband or like another husband having a wife you can’t truly be assured anymore of her ways due to the change from a WE statement to an – I, ME and MYSELF trinity.

** When an employee working and putting up with much of the skill to see the business setting THRIVE for the good of the Business with hope while such employee is being undermined by the employer with no fair and justifiable returns; or an employer doing and going beyond the company capacity to ensure employees are looked after, are given a good commensurate returns and care, while therein are some mean, dubious, undedicated and untrustworthy employee, who are there only for the looting, wasting and undermining the prospects of seeing such Business THRIVE knowingly and unknowingly; and they knowing that their doings may have terrible impact on them and all those who looks up to them through that means for their livelihood.

** When a government is failing in governance to the cause and course of giving leadership and governance in the distribution of the set resources to everyone without prejudice, discrimination and dissemination and such like; while there are some others within the system sabotaging the good effort and structure in place for the good governance and wealth distribution to all by their wicked, crafty, cunning and evil intent to loot the system and make it fail at no consequence.

** And the list goes on and on in various life applications of the challenge of FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL. You can name them too to make up this paragraph.

However, I am emboldened to say by the light of the Scriptures that BEING FAITHFUL – that is, FAITHFULNESS is rewarding in God, no Matter the prevailing challenges and circumstances that one might face or have been facing for a while or may face later on. For me, the knowing that God is FAITHFUL to Himself and His WORD in all about LIFE and GODLY LIVING, I recommend again of the need to live FAITHFUL. Hence, we are employed and enjoined as Believers in Christ Jesus stead, that in whatever capacity – WORD OR DEED, in carrying out our duty or Services, as toward God and toward man, we should do it as unto  God in the name of Jesus Christ; for God is FAITHFUL to REWARD us accordingly in spite of all happenings, in His grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Therefore I say to you, hold fastly and firmly the MYSTERY of your FAITH in the grace in Christ Jesus stead, with a PURE CONSCIENCE.

Herein are few hints but not limited to indicate that FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL, IS REWARDING in God, in Christ Jesus stead:

  1. FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL, gets one an enriching rewards and abounds with blessings. Proverbs 28:20; Proverbs 10:22; Ephesians 1:3.
  2. FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL, permits progress and abounds with healing and health. Proverbs 13:17, 2 Corinthians 5:20.
  3. FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL, abounds with refreshing grace for the good of others. Proverbs 25:13; Isaiah 44:24-26.
  4. FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL, abounds with commendation and the enabling to increase and promotion. Matthew 25:21, 23; Mark 10:28-30.
  5. FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL, abounds with eternal reward. Matthew 25:21b, 23b; Mark 10:28-30.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“FAITHFUL is he that CALLETH you, who also will DO it” 1 Thessalonians 5:24 (1 Corinthians 1:9; Romans 8:28-30).

“But the Lord is FAITHFUL, who shall STABLISH you, and KEEP you from EVIL” 2 Thessalonians 3:3.

“And WHATSOEVER ye do in WORD or DEED, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him” Colossians 3:17.

“And herein do I EXERCISE myself, to have always a CONSCIENCE void of offence TOWARD God, and TOWARD men” Acts 24:16.

“Holding the MYSTERY of the FAITH in a PURE CONSCIENCE” 1 Timothy 3:9.

“Let us hold fast the PROFESSION of our faith without wavering; for He is FAITHFUL that PROMISED” Hebrews 10:23.

“Being CONFIDENT of this very thing, that he which hath begun a GOOD work in you will PERFORM it until the day of Jesus Christ” Philippians 1:6.

NO MATTER THE NEVERTHELESS AND THE NOTWITHSTANDING OF YOUR SITUATIONS TODAY

NO MATTER THE NEVERTHELESS AND THE NOTWITHSTANDING OF YOUR SITUATIONS TODAY: STAY FAITHFUL IN PRAYERS – THERE’S AN ANSWER WITH GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, and NOT TO FAINT (GIVE UP, LOOSE HEARTS, BE WEARY) . . . 8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. NEVERTHELESS when the Son of man cometh, shall he find FAITH (FAITHFULNESS) on the earth?” Luke 18:1-18 Emphasis Mine.

Dear friend, be ASSURED and KNOW full well, that in Christ Jesus stead, no matter the NOTWITHSTANDING and the NEVERTHELESS you’ve found yourself at this very moment in life – You don’t need to FAINT, GIVE UP, BE WEARY, LOOSE HEARTS, BE UNFAITHFUL to the principles of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus because of your current challenges. You need to take the bull by the horns, knowing it’s in all goodness, graciousnesss and gracefulness for you to just stay FAITHFUL in PRAYERS – which is the CONSULTATION LIFELINE with God, until your ANSWERS comes.

THERE’S A MIRACLE for you in God’s BLESSEDNESS if you can take the needed and needful step of FAITH in God. For with God – ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE – [Matthew 19:26]. And ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE to you and to all Who BELIEVE God by FAITH in Christ Jesus stead – [Mark 9:23].

“But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is IMPOSSIBLE; but with God ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE” Matthew 19:26.

“Jesus said unto him, If thou canst BELIEVE, ALL THINGS are POSSIBLE to him that BELIEVETH” Mark 9:23.

Do you truly and earnestly BELIEVE the possibility God as Simon Peter fully Believe of God’s WORD to launch into the deep for a catch – the catch that comes on obeying Christ Jesus demands? [Luke 5:1-11]. Thus indicating that God will always COMMEND what He COMMAND. That should be your personal ANSWER to that QUEST you earnestly desire to turn around today no matter your situations. For we OUGHT to PRAY and not FAINT – and God seek a heart of FAITHFULNESS in all situations [Luke 18:1-8].

“. . . 4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, LAUNCH OUT INTO THE DEEP, AND LET DOWN YOUR NETS FOR A DRAUGHT. 5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have TOILED ALL THE NIGHT, AND HAVE TAKEN NOTHING: Nevertheless At Thy Word I WILL LET DOWN THE NET. 6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a GREAT MULTITUDE OF FISHES: and their NET BRAKE . . .” Luke 5:1-11.

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, and NOT TO FAINT (GIVE UP, LOOSE HEARTS, BE WEARY) . . . 8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. NEVERTHELESS when the Son of man cometh, shall he find FAITH (FAITHFULNESS) on the earth?” Luke 18:1-18/Emphasis Mine.

There are many occasions wherein we are at crossroads one way or the other. The natural thing to do in most cases is by tending to go down to Egypt because of the FAMINE of life as Isaac of Abraham of Genesis 26:1-6. But if you can take a stand on God’s WORD as he was instructed by God, therein he waxed great and went on to become very greater in the fulness of God’s BLESSEDNESS that took it’s hold in him as in Genesis 26:12-14 (Genesis 26).

There’s the need to stay FAITHFUL in PRAYERS no matter the nevertheless and the notwithstanding of your situations today; for there’s an ANSWER with God in Christ Jesus stead. Take the NOTWITHSTANDING and NEVERTHELESS position stand in PRAYERS, to deal with everything that stands in your part of BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“I will therefore that MEN PRAY EVERY WHERE, LIFTING UP HOLY HANDS, WITHOUT WRATH AND DOUBTING . . . 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. 15 NOTWITHSTANDING she shall be SAVED in CHILDBEARING, if they continue in FAITH and CHARITY and HOLINESS with SOBRIETY” 1 Timothy 2:8-15.

“But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the FURTHERANCE OF THE GOSPEL; 13 so that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places; 14 and many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear. 15 Some indeed PREACH Christ even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH Christ of CONTENTION, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel. 18 What then? NOTWITHSTANDING, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice. 19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, 20 according to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death. 21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 22 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not. 23 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better: 24 NEVERTHELESS to abide in the flesh is more needful for you. 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 rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again” Philippians 1:12-26.
