Philippians 3:7-14
7But 1whatever things were gain to me, these things I have counted as loss because of Christ. 8More than that, I count all things to be loss 2in view of the surpassing value of 34knowing 5Christ Jesus my Lord, 6for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them mere rubbish, so that I may gain Christ, 9and may be found in Him, not having 7a righteousness of my own derived from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, 8the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith, 10that I may 9know Him and 10the power of His resurrection and 1112the fellowship of His sufferings, being 13conformed to His death; 11if somehow I may 14attain to the resurrection from the dead.
12Not that I have already 1516grasped it all or have already 17become perfect, but I press on if I may also 18take hold of that 19for which I 20was even taken hold of by 21Christ Jesus. 13Brothers and sisters, I do not regard myself as having taken hold of it yet; but one thing I do: 22forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, 14I 23press on toward the goal for the prize of the 24upward call of God in 25Christ Jesus.
