Knowing Christ

# Chapter 3
|
||||
1. In addition, my brothers and sisters, rejoice in the Lord. To write to you again about this is no trouble for me and is a safeguard for you.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Watch out for the dogs, watch out for the evil workers, watch out for those who mutilate the flesh.
|
||||
3. For we are the circumcision, the ones who worship by the Spirit of God, boast in Christ Jesus, and do not put confidence in the flesh--
|
||||
4. although I have reasons for confidence in the flesh. If anyone else thinks he has grounds for confidence in the flesh, I have more:
|
||||
5. circumcised the eighth day; of the nation of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew born of Hebrews; regarding the law, a Pharisee;
|
||||
6. regarding zeal, persecuting the church; regarding the righteousness that is in the law, blameless.
|
||||
|
||||
7. But everything that was a gain to me, I have considered to be a loss because of Christ.
|
||||
8. More than that, I also consider everything to be a loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. Because of him I have suffered the loss of all things and consider them as dung, so that I may gain Christ
|
||||
9. and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own from the law, but one that is through faith in Christ--the righteousness from God based on faith.
|
||||
10. My goal is to know him and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of his sufferings, being conformed to his death,
|
||||
11. assuming that I will somehow reach the resurrection from among the dead.
|
||||
|
||||
Reaching Forward to God's Goal
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
12. Not that I have already reached the goal or am already perfect, but I make every effort to take hold of it because I also have been taken hold of by Christ Jesus.
|
||||
13. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and reaching forward to what is ahead,
|
||||
14. I pursue as my goal the prize promised by God's heavenly call in Christ Jesus.
|
||||
15. Therefore, let all of us who are mature think this way. And if you think differently about anything, God will reveal this also to you.
|
||||
16. In any case, we should live up to whatever truth we have attained.
|
||||
17. Join in imitating me, brothers and sisters, and pay careful attention to those who live according to the example you have in us.
|
||||
18. For I have often told you, and now say again with tears, that many live as enemies of the cross of Christ.
|
||||
19. Their end is destruction; their god is their stomach; their glory is in their shame; and they are focused on earthly things.
|
||||
20. Our citizenship is in heaven, and we eagerly wait for a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ.
|
||||
21. He will transform the body of our humble condition into the likeness of his glorious body, by the power that enables him to subject everything to himself.
