  6. Paul’s Circumstances Acts 28:18 “And when they had examined me, they were willing to release me because there was no ground for putting me to death.”

  7. Paul’s Circumstances Acts 28:19 “But when the Jews objected, I was forced to appeal to Caesar; not that I had any accusation against my nation.”

  14. The Gospel Penetrates Rome Philippians 4:22 All the saints greet you, especially those of Caesar's household.

  15. The Gospel Penetrates Rome Philippians 1:14 and that most of the brethren, trusting in the Lord because of my imprisonment, have far more courage to speak the word of God without fear.

  16. Preachers with Mixed Motives Philippians 1:15 Some, to be sure, are preaching Christ even from envy and strife, but some also from good will;

  17. Some Love Paul Philippians 1:16 the latter do it out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel;

  18. Some See Him as a Rival Philippians 1:17 the former proclaim Christ out of selfish ambition, rather than from pure motives, thinking to cause me distress in my imprisonment.

  19. For Paul the Gospel is Everything Philippians 1:18 What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed; and in this I rejoice, yes, and I will rejoice.

  20. For Paul the Gospel is Everything Galatians 1:8 But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to that which we have preached to you, let him be accursed.

  21. Paul’s “Salvation” Philippians 1:19 For I know that this shall turn out for my deliverance through your prayers and the provision of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

  22. Paul Alludes to Job Job 13:16 This also will be my salvation, For a godless man may not come before His presence.

  24. Paul’s “Salvation” Philippians 1:20 according to my earnest expectation and hope, that I shall not be put to shame in anything . . .

  25. Paul’s “Salvation” Philippians 1:20 . . .but that with all boldness, Christ shall even now, as always, be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.
