Philippians 3:15-4:1

New American Standard Bible

¹⁵ Therefore, all who are ^[a](A)mature, let’s have this attitude; and if in anything you have a ^(B)different attitude, ^(C)God will reveal that to you as well; ¹⁶ however, let’s keep ^[b](D)living by that same standard to which we have attained.

¹⁷ Brothers and sisters, ^(E)join in following my example, and observe those who walk according to the ^(F)pattern you have in us. ¹⁸ For ^(G)many walk, of whom I often told you, and now tell you even as I ^(H)weep, that they are the enemies of ^(I)the cross of Christ, ¹⁹ whose end is destruction, whose god is their ^[c](J)appetite, and whose ^(K)glory is in their shame, who ^(L)have their minds on earthly things. ²⁰ For ^(M)our ^[d]citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly ^(N)wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ; ²¹ who will ^(O)transform the body of our lowly condition into ^(P)conformity with ^[e]His ^(Q)glorious body, ^(R)by the exertion of the power that He has even to ^(S)subject all things to Himself.

Think of Excellence

4 Therefore, my beloved brothers and sisters, ^[f]whom I ^(T)long to see, my joy and crown, ^(U)stand firm in the Lord in this way, my beloved.
