1:27-30 Paul encourages the Philippian Christians to live in a way that is worthy of the Good News (cp. Eph 4:1; Col 1:10; 1 Thes 2:12), particularly by standing strong despite persecution. 1:27 As foreigners in this world, the Philippian believers are to live as citizens of heaven (cp. 3:20; 1 Pet 2:9-11).
