腓立比书1:15-18
15有的传基督,是出于嫉妒分争。也有的是出于好意。16这一等是出于爱心,知道我是为辩明福音设立的。17那一等传基督是出于结党,并不诚实,意思要加增我捆锁的苦楚。18这有何妨呢?或是假意,或是真心,无论怎样,基督究竟被传开了。为此我就欢喜,并且还要欢喜。
15It’s true that some are preaching out of jealousy and rivalry. But others preach about Christ with pure motives. 16They preach because they love me, for they know I have been appointed to defend the Good News. 17Those others do not have pure motives as they preach about Christ. They preach with selfish ambition, not sincerely, intending to make my chains more painful to me. 18But that doesn’t matter. Whether their motives are false or genuine, the message about Christ is being preached either way, so I rejoice. And I will continue to rejoice.
