This verse and entire chapter of PHILIPPIANS 3 has caused much confusion in that it has been taught or assumed to be referring to Saint Paul saying he is pressing toward the "PRIZE OF THE HIGH CALLING OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS" as in he is striving to MAKE SURE HE IS SAVED AND MAKES IT TO THE RESURRECTION bc "HE HAD NOT ALREADY ATTAINED IT" (of course he had not YET ATTAINED the resurrecction, bc he was still alive!) but if we read this in what I believe is its TRUE CONTEXT AND INTENTION, IT CAN HELP MOTIVATE US TO GROW, MATURE, AND STRIVE TO LIVE IN THE PUPOSE THE LORD HAS CALLED US TO AND WORK TOWARD LESS OF OURSELVES AND MORE OF JESUS LIVE IN US. I hope this edifies you.
