The Grade School Draft…

Who Drafted You?

Philippians 3:10-11 (Amplified Bible) “…so that I may know Him [experientially, becoming more thoroughly acquainted with Him, understanding the remarkable wonders of His Person more completely] and [in that same way experience] the power of His resurrection [which overflows and is active in believers], and [that I may share] the fellowship of His sufferings, by being continually conformed [inwardly into His likeness even] to His death [dying as He did]; 11so that I may attain to the resurrection [that will raise me] from the dead.”

Philippians 3:12-14 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. 13 Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

HUMBLE REALISM acknowledges that growing up in Christ is a life-long process (Phil. 3:12). There will always be room for progress. Philippians 3:12-14 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal….

Philippians 3:12-14 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. 

Philippians 3:13 “Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it.”

Philippians 3:13 “Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do:

2. FOCUSED DETERMINATION is critical to experiencing Christ in everything.

3. CEASELESS PURSUIT is critical to experiencing Christ in everything.

Philippians 3:12 “…I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.  I Corinthians 9:24 “Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.”

Know the objective. Train rigorously.

Richard Edward  "Dick" SHANKS  (1923 - 2018)

4. FUTURE ORIENTATION is critical to experiencing Christ in everything.

Avoid twin dangers about the past: 1.) Preoccupation with past FAILURES. 2.) Fixation on past SUCCESSES.

I Corinthians 2:9 “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him.”
