Philippians 2:28-30
The Message
28-30 So you can see why I’m so delighted to send him on to you. When you see him again, strong and strapping, how you’ll rejoice and how relieved I’ll be. Give him a grand welcome, a joyful embrace! People like him deserve the best you can give. Remember the ministry to me that you started but weren’t able to complete? Well, in the process of finishing up that work, he put his life on the line and nearly died doing it.

Philippians 2:28-30
New International Version
28 Therefore I am all the more eager to send him,(A) so that when you see him again you may be glad and I may have less anxiety. 29 So then, welcome him in the Lord with great joy, and honor people like him,(B) 30 because he almost died for the work of Christ. He risked his life to make up for the help you yourselves could not give me.(C)
