Philippians 3:16

Following JesusObedience

14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize of God’s heavenly calling in Christ Jesus.

15 All of us who are mature should embrace this point of view. And if you think differently about some issue, God will reveal this to you as well.

Nevertheless, we must live up to what we have already attained.

17 Join one another in following my example, brothers, and carefully observe those who walk according to the pattern we set for you.

18 For as I have often told you before, and now say again even with tears: Many live as enemies of the cross of Christ.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
