27Nevertheless, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Then, whether I come and see you or only hear about you in my absence, I will know that you stand firm in one spirit, contending side by side for the faith of the gospel,
28without being frightened in any way by those who oppose you. This is a clear sign of their destruction but of your salvation, and it is from God.
— Philippians 1:27-28
