Jer. 9.23. Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom: — 2 Cor. 10.17. But he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
Phil. 3.12, 13, 14, 15. Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect; but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. Brethren, I count not my self to have apprehended; but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark, for the price of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Let us therefore as many as be perfect, be thus minded, and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this to you.
