Philippians 3:12 Context
10That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable vnto his death, 11If by any meanes I might attaine vnto the resurrection of the dead. 12Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Iesus. 13Brethren, I count not my selfe to haue apprehended: but this one thing I doe, forgetting those things which are behinde, and reaching forth vnto those things which are before, 14I presse toward the marke, for the price of the high calling of God in Christ Iesus.
