## Philippians 1:14-17 in Context (Verses 11–20 KJV)
 
 [11 ](/kjv/philippians/1/11) Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
 
 [12 ](/kjv/philippians/1/12) 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 ](/kjv/philippians/1/13) So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other *places*;
 
 [14 ](/kjv/philippians/1/14) And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.
 
 [15 ](/kjv/philippians/1/15) Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:
 
 [16 ](/kjv/philippians/1/16) The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:
 
 [17 ](/kjv/philippians/1/17) But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.
 
 [18 ](/kjv/philippians/1/18) What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.
 
 [19 ](/kjv/philippians/1/19) For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
 
 [20 ](/kjv/philippians/1/20) 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.
 
[Ephesians 6](/kjv/ephesians/6) [Philippians 2](/kjv/philippians/2)
