2 Corinthians 1:14
14just as you have already understood us partially, so that on the day of our ▼▼Other mss. read the
Lord Jesus we can be your reason to boast, even as you are ours.2Cor 5:12; Phil 2:16; 4:1; 1Thes 2:19-20 Philippians 1:8
8For God is my witness how much I long for all of you with the compassion of Christ Jesus.Rom 1:9; 9:1; Gal 1:20; Phil 2:26; 4:1; 1Thes 2:5Philippians 1:27
27Standing Firm in One SpiritThe only thing that matters is that you continue to live as good citizens in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Then, whether I come to see you or whether I stay away, I may hear all about you—that you are standing firm in one spirit, struggling with one mind for the faith of the gospel,1Cor 1:10; Eph 4:1; Phil 4:1; Col 1:10; 1Thes 2:12; 4:1; Jude 1:3Philippians 2:16
16as you hold out ▼▼Or hold firmly to
the word of life. Then I can boast in the day of Christ that I did not run in vain or work hard in vain.2Cor 1:14; Gal 2:2; 1Thes 2:19; 3:5 1 Thessalonians 2:19-20
19After all, who is our hope, joy, or reason for ▼▼Lit. crown of
boasting in the presence of our Lord Jesus at his coming? It is you, isn't it?Prov 16:31; 1Cor 15:23; 2Cor 1:14; Phil 2:16; 4:1; 1Thes 3:13; Rev 1:7; 22:12 20Yes, you are our glory and joy!
