Philippians 3 - Revised Geneva Translation (RGT)

3 Moreover, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord! It does not trouble me to write the same things to you. And for you it is certain.

2 Beware of dogs. Beware of evil workers. Beware of the concision.

3 For we are the circumcision. We worship God in the Spirit and rejoice in Christ Jesus and have no confidence in the flesh,

4 though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If anyone else thinks that he might have confidence in the flesh, more so I:

5 circumcised the eighth day; of the kindred of Israel; of the tribe of Benjamin; a Hebrew of Hebrews; by the Law, a Pharisee;

6 concerning zeal, I persecuted the Church; according to righteousness (which is in the Law), I had become blameless.

7 But whatever things that were gain to me, the same I have counted as loss for Christ’s sake.

8 Indeed, also, I count all things but loss for the sake of the surpassing knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for Whom I have counted all things loss and judge them to be garbage, so that I may gain Christ

9 and be found in Him; that is, not having my own righteousness (which is of the Law) but that which is through faith in Christ - the righteousness which is from God by faith;

10 so that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His suffering and be conformed to His death

11 (if by any means I might attain to the resurrection from the dead).

12 Not that I have already attained to it or been perfected. But I follow, so that I may seize that for which I also was seized by Christ Jesus.

13 Brothers, I do not count myself as having seized it. But one thing I do: I forget that which is behind and stretch forward toward that which is ahead;

14 and follow hard toward the mark, for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

15 Let us, therefore (as many as are mature) be thus-minded. And if you are otherwise-minded, even this God shall reveal to you.

16 Nevertheless, to that which we have already attained, let us walk by one rule and be of the same mind.

17 Brothers, be imitators of me and observe those who also walk thus (as you have us for an example).

18 For many walk of whom I have often told you (and tell you now, weeping) who are the enemies of the cross of Christ;

19 whose end is destruction; whose God is their belly; and whose glory is in their knowledge of earthly things, to their shame.

20 But our citizenship is in Heaven, from where we also look for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,

21 He shall transform our humiliated body into a body conformed to His glory, according to the working whereby He is able even to subdue all things to Himself.
