Philippians 2:1-5
Right Thinking, Right Living
Therefore if you have any encouragement from
being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love,
if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any
tenderness and compassion, 2 then make my joy
complete by being like-minded, having the same
love, being one in spirit and of one mind. 3 Do
nothing out of selfish ambition or vain
conceit. Rather, in humility value others above
yourselves, 4 not looking to your own interests but
each of you to the interests of the others. 5 In your
relationships with one another, have the same
mindset as Christ Jesus:
