In 1.27-30: Living worthy of the gospel.
In verse 27: Live your life, literally "conduct life as a citizen" of heaven (3.20).
Worthy of the gospel of Christ, that is in a manner that does not seek one's own elevation above another (2.6-11).
In verse 29: Paul suffers for the gospel to show that suffering is part of grace.
In verse 27-30: A series of athletic or military images includes striving side by side (compare 4.3), struggle (the contest of defending the gospel to outsiders), and even standing firm.
