Philippians 3:12-14
Keep Going Forward
12 Not that I have already attained this—that is, I have not already been perfected—but I strive to lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus also laid hold of me. ▼▼tn Grk “that for which I also was laid hold of by Christ Jesus.” The passive has been translated as active in keeping with contemporary English style.
13Brothers and sisters, ▼ I do not consider myself to have attained this. Instead I am single-minded: ▼▼tn Grk “But this one thing (I do).”
Forgetting the things that are behind and reaching out for the things that are ahead, 14with this goal in mind, ▼▼tn Grk “according to the goal.”
I strive toward the prize of the upward call of God ▼▼tn Grk “prize, namely, the heavenly calling of God.”
in Christ Jesus.
