For, let this mind be in you that is also in Christ Jesus,

Not that I did already obtain, or have been already perfected; but I pursue, if also I may lay hold of that for which also I was laid hold of by the Christ Jesus;

brethren, I do not reckon myself to have laid hold; and one thing -- the things behind indeed forgetting, and to the things before stretching forth --

As many, therefore, as are perfect -- let us think this, and if in anything ye think otherwise, this also shall God reveal to you,

let your forbearance be known to all men; the Lord is near;

for nothing be anxious, but in everything by prayer, and by supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God;
