Confident: Monday May 25 - Mid Day

Philippians 1:12-18
12 Now I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that what has happened to me has actually served 
to advance the gospel. 13 As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and 
to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ. 14 And because of my chains, most of the brothers 
and sisters have become confident in the Lord and dare all the more to proclaim the gospel without 
fear. 15 It is true that some preach Christ out of envy and rivalry, but others out of goodwill. 16 The 
latter do so out of love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of the gospel. 17 The former 
preach Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing that they can stir up trouble for me while I am in chains. 18 But what does it matter? The important thing is that in every way, whether 
from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice.
