Philippians 3:2-7

2Beware of the dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of those who mutilate the flesh!

3For we are the circumcision, the ones who worship by the Spirit of God, exult in Christ Jesus, and do not rely on human credentials

4– though mine too are significant. If someone thinks he has good reasons to put confidence in human credentials, I have more:

5I was circumcised on the eighth day, from the people of Israel and the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews. I lived according to the law as a Pharisee.

6In my zeal for God I persecuted the church. According to the righteousness stipulated in the law I was blameless.

7But these assets I have come to regard as liabilities because of Christ.
