Philippians:3:7-14

*
But the things that were gain to me ,
those I have counted loss for Christ .
*
Yes ,
I count all to be loss because of the surpassing worth of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord ,
for whom I have suffered the loss of all things and count them but refuse ,
that I may gain Christ
*
and be found in him ,
not having my own righteousness that was from the Law ,
but that which is through faith in Christ ,
the righteousness which comes from God and rests on faith ,
*
that I may know him and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of his sufferings ,
becoming like him in death ,
*
if possibly I may attain to the resurrection from the dead .
*
Not that I have already obtained it or have already been made perfect ,
but I press on to lay hold of that for which I was laid hold of by Christ Jesus .
*
Brethren ,
I do not consider myself yet to have laid hold of it .
But one thing I do :
forgetting what is behind and stretching forward to what is in front
*
I press toward the goal for the prize of the heavenly call of God in Christ Jesus .
