腓立比书3:12-16
12这不是说,我已经得着了,已经完全了。我乃是竭力追求,或者可以得着基督耶稣所以得着我的。(所以得着我的或作所要我得的)13弟兄们,我不是以为自己已经得着了。我只有一件事,就是忘记背后努力面前的,14向着标竿直跑,要得神在基督耶稣里从上面召我来得的奖赏。15所以我们中间凡是完全人,总要存这样的心。若在什么事上,存别样的心,神也必以此指示你们。16然而我们到了什么地步,就当照着什么地步行。
12I don’t mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection. But I press on to possess that perfection for which Christ Jesus first possessed me. 13No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it,#3:13 Some manuscripts read not yet achieved it. but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, 14I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us. 15Let all who are spiritually mature agree on these things. If you disagree on some point, I believe God will make it plain to you. 16But we must hold on to the progress we have already made.
