11. If by any means I may attain to the resurrection which is from the dead.
12. Not as though I has already attained, or were already perfect; but I follow after, if I may by any means apprehend, wherein I am also apprehended by Christ Jesus.
13. Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended. But one thing I do: forgetting the things that are behind, and stretching forth myself to those that are before,
14. I press towards the mark, to the prize of the supernal vocation of God in Christ Jesus.
15. Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, be thus minded; and if in any thing you be otherwise minded, this also God will reveal to you.
16. Nevertheless whereunto we are come, that we be of the same mind, let us also continue in the same rule.
17. Be ye followers of me, brethren, and observe them who walk so as you have our model.
