Surrounding context

11

if by any means I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.

12

Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Christ Jesus.

13

Brothers, I don’t regard myself as yet having taken hold, but one thing I do. Forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before,

14

I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

15

Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, think this way. If in anything you think otherwise, God will also reveal that to you.

16

Nevertheless, to the extent that we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule. Let us be of the same mind.

17

Brothers, be imitators together of me, and note those who walk this way, even as you have us for an example.
