Why does the spelling look unusual?

¹ Paul and Timotheus the seruants of Iesus Christ, to all the Saints in Christ Iesus, which are at Philippi, with the Bishops and Deacons:

² Grace be vnto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Iesus Christ.

³ I thanke my God vpon euery remembrance of you,

⁴ Alwayes in euery prayer of mine for you all making request, with ioy

⁵ For your felowship in the Gospel from the first day vntill now;

⁶ Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you, will performe it vntil the day of Iesus Christ:

⁷ Euen as it is meete for mee to thinke this of you all, because I haue you in my heart, in as much as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the Gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.

⁸ For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all, in the bowels of Iesus Christ.

⁹ And this I pray, that your loue may abound yet more & more in knowledge, and in all iudgment.

¹⁰ That ye may approue things that are excellent, that ye may be sincere, and without offence till the day of Christ.

¹¹ Being filled with the fruites of righteousnesse, which are by Iesus Christ vnto the glory and praise of God.

¹² But I would yee should vnderstand brethren, that the things which happened vnto mee, haue fallen out rather vnto 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 speake the word without feare.

¹⁵ Some in deed preach Christ, euen of enuie and strife, and some also of good will.

¹⁶ The one preach Christ of contention, not syncerely, supposing to adde affliction to my bonds:

¹⁷ But the other of loue, knowing that I am set for the defence of the Gospel.

¹⁸ What then? Notwithstanding euery way, whether in pretence, or in trueth: Christ is preached, and I therein doe reioyce, yea, and will reioyce.

¹⁹ For I know that this shall turne to my saluation through your prayer, and the supplie of the spirit of Iesus Christ,

²⁰ According to my earnest expectation, and my hope, that in nothing I shalbe ashamed: but that with all boldnes, as alwayes, so now also Christ shal be magnified in my body, whether it be by life or by death.

²¹ For to me to liue is Christ, and to die is gaine.

²² But if I liue in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shal chuse, I wote not.

²³ For I am in a strait betwixt two, hauing a desire to depart, & to bee with Christ, which is farre better.

²⁴ Neuertheles, to abide in the flesh, is more needfull for you.

²⁵ And hauing this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all, for your furtherance and ioy of faith,

²⁶ That your reioycing may bee more abundant in Iesus Christ for me, by my comming to you againe.

²⁷ Onely let your conuersation bee as it becommeth the Gospel of Christ, that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may heare of your affaires, that yee stand fast in one spirit, with one minde, striuing together for the faith of the Gospel,

²⁸ And in nothing terrified by your aduersaries, which is to them an euident token of perdition: but to you of saluation, and that of God.

²⁹ For vnto you it is giuen in the behalfe of Christ, not onely to beleeue on him, but also to suffer for his sake,

³⁰ Hauing the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now heare to be in me.

Arsene GANDOTE's Philippians Chapter 1 comment on 4/09/2013, 11:23am...

Philippians 1:29 I could see that righteous suffering is a gift from God. And it is somthing we christians should be aware of. The goodness of God is not only seen in good things He bestwoed on us but also in the suffering we ought to go through for Jesus-Christ sake one way or the other.

R. D. Mattock's Philippians Chapter 1 comment on 3/30/2013, 9:15pm...

For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
John the Baptist said John 3:30 He must increase, but I must decrease. Galatians 4:19 tells us until Christ be formed in you. We are becoming more like Jesus Christ everyday.

Chuks cyrus's Philippians Chapter 1 comment about verse 6 on 3/24/2013, 2:06am...

Just as Christ came and fulfilled his purpose on earth. So is God giving us the assurance that whatever purpose he God has commissioned us to do, that He will help us to finish and fulfil it just as Christ did.

Ron's Philippians Chapter 1 comment about verse 6 on 3/23/2013, 10:25am...

It would seem, according to the Word to God, that although life can become challenging in part having difficulties to face; because God Himself has begun a work in us, it will be performed to the fullest, despite any challenge or difficulty! What shall separate us from the Love of God?

Demilade's Philippians Chapter 1 comment on 3/22/2013, 2:54pm...

hmm.....what a glorious chapter.
Paul exhibits here so much LOVE for the people that he deeply desired that they grow in knowledge of GOD and be found blameless on the last day. Phill 1:9-10.....he talks about them growing in love that they begin to focus on the important. wow!!! what the light of the word does in us. His unconditional love finds expression in us and we find ourselfs passionate and praying for other believers like Paul did.

Francis's Philippians Chapter 1 comment on 3/12/2013, 4:35am...

Brothers and Sisters in Jesus Christ Our Lord, be strong in your Faith for I bear witness of Him who Created us. Be Steadfast and know that he is with you always and is there for those you that have Faith in him for he has come in the flesh and the kingdom of Heaven has come nigh unto you. Be joyful and let your hearts be glad that you have Him and may the Love which passes all understanding be with you always. With regard to the first chapter of the Book of by Paul and Timothy, Trust these words for indeed they will set you on the paths righteousness and bring you comfort in the sure knowledge that Christ is with us. These are not Old Words they are as new and relevant today as they were then.

Folarin Omojoye's Philippians Chapter 1 comment on 1/23/2013, 4:54am...

A must read for every sincere Christian passing through tough times, or living in affluence in order to bring out the core of our faith in HIS faithfulness.

Timothy Wayne George's Philippians Chapter 1 comment about verse 6 on 1/19/2013, 5:09pm...

Just went from home going to a service for one of the Church members of my father's Church Mt. Zion Baptist, and this is the completion of this verse, when Jesus calls us home to glory. Jesus prayed that we would be with him in heaven, and at salvation, He justifies us, separates us for His service, then He calls us home to glory. Thank God death is not the end, but a transformation to glory. Praise God when we all get to heaven, what a glorious day that will be.
