ACC ~ Philippians 3 v14

THE UPWARD CALL OF GOD. MARIUS VICTORINUS: Here then are two precepts for the one who is going to live the rest of life walking in the Christian way. First, the one who is still living under divine governance, however well and rightly he has acted in the past, should not think about all the actions he has already done as though he deserved to obtain something by them. Rather he should cast them into oblivion, always seeking the new tasks that remain. Second, he should nonetheless keep living under the divine rule, continually “pressing on” toward these things and observing the rule of Christ, even to death. EPISTLE TO THE PHILIPPIANS 3.13-14.

THOUGH WE KNOW NOT THE FUTURE, WE KNOW THE ONE WHO KNOWS IT. THEODORET: This is how we should think about the crowns laid up for us. For even if we do not perceive exactly what these are like, we ought at least to know that God, as Master of the contest, will reveal this to us. EPISTLE TO THE PHILIPPIANS 3.15.
