THE SURROUNDING PASSAGE
Philippians 1:5 in context
Philippians 1:2–8
2
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3
I thank my God whenever I remember you,
4
always in every request of mine on behalf of you all, making my requests with joy,
6
being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.
7
It is even right for me to think this way on behalf of all of you, because I have you in my heart, because both in my bonds and in the defense and confirmation of the Good News, you all are partakers with me of grace.
8
For God is my witness, how I long after all of you in the tender mercies of Christ Jesus.
