24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands "in every thing. 25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;

26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it 2 with the washing of water a by the word,

TO THE

PHILIPPIANS.

CHAPTER I.

3 He testifieth his thankfulness to God, and
his love toward them, for the fruits of
their faith, and fellowship in his suffer
ings, 9 daily praying to him for their
increase in grace: 12 he sheweth what
good the faith of Christ had received by
his troubles at Rome, 21 and how ready
he is to glorify Christ either by his life
or death, 27 exhorting them to unity, 28
and to fortitude in persecution.
