1 As for the remaining things, siblings of mine: Rejoice* in the Lord! To write the same things to you is, while to me not idleness, yet to you steadfastness.
2 Observe the dogs, observe the evil workers, observe the cutting up.
3 Indeed, we are the circumcision, who are in Spirit worshipping God and boasting in Christ Jesus and not trusting in flesh.
4 And yet I myself was having confidence even in the flesh. If someone else deems himself to have confidence in flesh, I more:
5 by circumcision the eighth day, from generation Israel, of tribe Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews, according to law a Pharisee,
6 according to zeal persecuting the called assembly of Christ, being faultless according to righteousness that is by law.
7 But what things were gain to me, these things I counted as loss due to the Christ.
...
9 and that I may be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, that which is from law, but that which is through Christ's faith, the righteousness from God upon the faith,
10 the knowing Him and the power of the resurrection of His and the fellowship of the sufferings of His, being conformed to* the death of His
11 if that is how I should come to the resurrection of the dead.
...
20 Of us, indeed, the governmental affairs begin in heavens, from where even a saviour we await, a lord, Jesus Christ,
21 who will configure the body of the lowliness of ours, conforming it to the body of the glory of Him, according to the energy of Him being empowered even to subdue all things to Himself.
