Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Therefore let us, as many as are mature, have this mind; and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal even this to you.
we ought to Wholly depend on him (God), show him that without him we cannot go on, because its not by strength or power but by his Spirit and since he is so gentle, he will never force us to do what we don not choose.Nevertheless, to the degree that we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us be of the same mind. Slowly by renewing, submitting our lives and minds to the word of God we attaiin the mind of Christ our Lord and Savior.
Shalom!
