11 filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
12 Now I want you to know, brothers, that my circumstances have actually served to advance the gospel.
13 As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ.

16 The latter do so in love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel.
