A quotation from The Bible

Nothing is to be done out of jealousy or vanity; instead, out of humility of mind everyone should give preference to others, everyone pursuing not selfish interests but those of others.
 
[μηδὲν κατ᾽ ἐριθείαν μηδὲ κατὰ κενοδοξίαν ἀλλὰ τῇ ταπεινοφροσύνῃ ἀλλήλους ἡγούμενοι ὑπερέχοντας ἑαυτῶν, μὴ τὰ ἑαυτῶν ἕκαστος σκοποῦντες ἀλλὰ [καὶ] τὰ ἑτέρων ἕκαστοι.]

The Bible (The New Testament) (AD 1st - 2nd C) Christian sacred scripture
Philippians 2: 3-4 [NJB (1985)]

#Philippians 2:1-4 is justly famous. We do well to heed its message and seek to be of the same #mind, #love, #spirit, and #purpose in #humility.

How could #Christians complete #Paul's joy? Share in deep relational #unity in #Christ without selfishness.

We explore the essence of sharing and putting others first, as inspired by Philippians chapter 2. Instead of selfishness, we learn how to grow and bear fruit by considering the interests of others. #Sharing #Philippians #Humility #Selflessness #Community #Inspiration #Faith #Christianity #BibleStudy #Motivation
