Philippians 3:13–21

¹³Brothers, I do not ^fconsider myself to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind ^gand reaching forward to what is ahead, ¹⁴I pursue as my goal the prize promised by God’s heavenly ^hcall in Christ Jesus. ⁱ¹⁵Therefore, all who are mature should think this way. And if you think differently about anything, God will reveal ^jthis also to you. ¹⁶In any case, we should live up to whatever truth we have attained. ¹⁷Join in imitating me, brothers, and observe those who live according to the example you have in us. ¹⁸For I have often told you, and now say again with tears, that many live as enemies of the cross ^kof Christ. ¹⁹Their end is destruction; their god is their stomach; their glory ^lis in their shame. They are focused on earthly things, ²⁰but our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. ²¹He will transform the body of our humble condition into the likeness of His glorious ^mbody, ⁿby the power that enables Him to subject everything to Himself.
