Question 1

Phillipians 1:15-18

Answer 1

Some indeed preach Christ from envy and rivalry, but others from good will.

The latter do it out of love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of the gospel.

What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed, and in that I rejoice.

Question 2

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
