Pressing Toward the Goal
12 Not that I have already (F)attained,[b] or am already (G)perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. 13 Brethren, I do not count myself to have [c]apprehended; but one thing I do, (H)forgetting those things which are behind and (I)reaching forward to those things which are ahead, 14 (J)I press toward the goal for the prize of (K)the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
15 Therefore let us, as many as are (L)mature, (M)have this mind; and if in anything you think otherwise, (N)God will reveal even this to you.
