New Years Thoughts 2025: Regarding Philippians 3:7-15
In Philippians 3:7-15, Paul emphasizes that compared to knowing Christ, all other achievements and accomplishments in life are insignificant, and he urges believers to prioritize pursuing a deeper relationship with Christ above all else, even considering past accolades as "loss" to gain the surpassing value of knowing Christ fully; essentially, he is saying to focus on the future goal of being closer to Christ rather than dwelling on past achievements or worldly pride.
