Philippians 2:3 - Plain English Version

^3-4 Each of you has to think about what is good for the others. Don’t only think about what is good for yourself. Don’t think that you are better than other people, but think that they are better than you. And don’t do things only to get people to say you are good. And don’t try to be a boss over other people.

But the people that teach something different are wrong. Those people don’t really understand anything. They just want everyone to think they are important.

They think bad things, and they say bad things about each other.
