¹ Yo, this is Paul and my homie Tim, we out here reppin' Christ Jesus. We sendin' love to all the saints in the squad at Philippi, along with the deacons and church leaders. What’s up!" Verse 2: ² "Grace and peace be with you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, ya feel me?" Let me know if you'd like me to adjust anything! ³ I’m always thinkin’ about y’all, and every time I do, I gotta show mad love and be thankful. For real, every time I pray, you’re on my mind." Verse 4: ⁴ "I’m out here prayin’ for you with joy in my heart, ’cause I’m hyped about all the work you’ve been doin' in the name of Jesus." Verse 5: ⁵ "You’ve been ridin’ with me from day one, supporting the mission and spreading the gospel. I appreciate that more than words can say." Verse 6: ⁶ "And I’m confident, 100%, that the same God who started this good work in you is gonna finish it strong. He ain't gonna leave you hangin'." ⁷ "I got mad love for y’all, and it’s only right that I feel this way. We’ve been through a lot together, and I’m always down for you—whether I’m locked up or out here still preachin'. You’re always in my heart." Verse 8: ⁸ "God knows how badly I wanna be with y’all, and how much I care. I love you all so much, like for real, with that deep, genuine love only Jesus can give." ⁹ Yo, I’m prayin’ that your love for each other keeps growing, not just a little, but big-time, with all the knowledge and wisdom you need to understand what’s real." Verse 10: ¹⁰ "So you can be on point, making the right moves, and living pure, with no mistakes, waiting for that big day when Jesus comes back." Verse 11: ¹¹ "Filled up with all that good stuff that comes from being connected to Jesus, so you can give God the glory and praise He deserves." ¹³ "Look, I need to let y’all know—everything that’s happened to me, even the tough stuff, turned out to be for the greater good of spreading the gospel." Verse 13: ¹² "Now, because I’m locked up, people all over know I’m reppin’ Christ. My situation got everybody talking about Jesus." Verse 14: ¹⁴ "And because they see me stayin’ strong even through the struggle, it’s giving the rest of the believers more courage, and now they’re out here preaching the word without fear." ¹⁵ "Some folks are out here preachin’ Christ for the right reasons, but there’s others doin’ it just to flex on me while I’m locked up, tryna get under my skin." Verse 16: ¹⁶ "But the ones who really got it right? They preach with pure motives, tryin’ to help me out and spread the gospel for real." Verse 17: ¹⁷ "Then there’s the ones who’re doin’ it with selfish reasons, not really carein’ about the truth, just tryna cause drama while I’m in prison." ¹⁸ "Yo, at the end of the day, it don’t even matter why they’re preachin’—whether it’s for the right reasons or to mess with me. What matters is that Christ is being talked about, and I’m hyped about that." Verse 19: ¹⁹ "I know that no matter what happens, y’all’s prayers and the Spirit of Jesus are gonna pull me through. I’m gonna be straight, and it’s all for the glory of Christ." ²⁰ "I’m out here lookin’ to keep it real no matter what. Whether I stay free or get locked up, I’m gonna represent Christ with no shame. I’m tryna make sure I bring honor to Him, no matter how it plays out." Verse 21: ²¹ "For me, it’s all about Christ. If I keep living, it’s gonna be for Him, and if I gotta go, that’s even better, ‘cause I’ll be with Him for real." ²³ "If I stick around and keep grindin', I can still do more work for Christ. But honestly, I’m stuck between two options—either I keep livin' and help y’all grow, or I bounce and chill with Jesus." Verse 23: ²² "Honestly, I’m torn, 'cause being with Jesus is fire—it’s straight paradise. But I know it’s better for y’all if I stay here and keep helping you out." Verse 24: ²⁴ "Staying here and vibin’ with you all is what’s better for your growth and joy in the faith." ²⁵ "So I’m gonna stick around for a bit longer, 'cause I know it’s what’s best for you. I’m here to help you level up in your faith and keep your joy strong in Christ." Verse 26: ²⁶ "That way, when I finally come through, you’ll be extra hyped and proud in Jesus, ‘cause you know it was all worth it." Verse 27: ²⁷ "Just make sure you’re living a life that matches the gospel—keep it real, stand firm in your faith, and don’t let anything shake you. Stand strong, no matter what goes down." ²⁸ Don’t let anyone see you sweating or backin’ down when things get tough. Let your faith stay solid, and let them see that their threats don’t scare you. That’s proof to them they ain't got the power, but you’re rockin’ with God." Verse 29: ²⁹ "You’ve been blessed to not only believe in Christ, but also to ride with Him through the struggles. It’s part of the journey." Verse 30: ³⁰ "Look, you’re going through the same battles I’m facing. We both out here, sufferin’ for the same cause, reppin’ Christ, and standin’ strong."
