'Pursue' in the Bible

For those who are living according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh [which gratify the body], but those who are living according to the Spirit, [set their minds on] the things of the Spirit [His will and purpose].

What should we say then? Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have obtained righteousness—namely the righteousness that comes from faith.

Why is that? Because they did not pursue it by faith, but as if it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone.

Share with the saints in their needs; pursue hospitality.

So then, we must pursue what promotes peace and what builds up one another.
