Philippians 3:13–21

¹³Brethren, I count not myself yet to have laid hold: but one thing I do, forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before. ¹⁴I press on toward the goal unto the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. ¹⁵Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, be thus minded: and if in anything ye are otherwise minded, this also shall God reveal unto you: ¹⁶only, whereunto we have attained, by that same rule let us walk.

¹⁷Brethren, be ye imitators together of me, and mark them that so walk even as ye have us for an ensample. ¹⁸For many walk, of whom I told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: ¹⁹whose end is perdition, whose god is the belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things. ²⁰For our citizenship is in heaven; whence also we wait for a Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: ²¹who shall fashion anew the body of our humiliation, that it may be conformed to the body of his glory, according to the working whereby he is able even to subject all things unto himself.
