Philippians 3:12-16
Lexham English Bible
12 Not that I have already received this,[a] or have already been made perfect, but I press on if indeed I may lay hold of that for which also I was laid hold of by Christ.[b] 13 Brothers, I do not consider myself to have laid hold of it.[c] But I do one thing, forgetting the things behind and straining toward the things ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
Imitate Paul
15 Therefore as many as are perfect, let us hold this opinion[d], and if you think anything differently, God will reveal this also to you. 16 Only to what we have attained, to the same hold on.
